I agree that DWG has the authority to act, here. But as I understand it, the authority of DWG comes from OSMF, not from the OSM community. If DWG wants to act on behalf of the OSM community, then their members should be appointed by the OSM community, not by OSMF. Additionally, now would be a good time to work toward more formal standards for tagging. While I disagree that mappers should be bound by unwritten convention, I do think it would be useful to adopt RFC-style agreed upon tagging standards.
