But we are fundamentally tagging the wrong thing, even if groupthink led to consensus. In the US there is a strong notion of county, even if CT/RI, and those lines should show up on rendered maps. Deciding that the tag that everybody expects to use should mean something different from what essentially all map users want to know is not helpful. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
