There are currently 36 proposed values for the shop key yet 6 approved values. In the current 07-12-26 uk planet.osm excerpt there are 159 different shop values.
Similarly there are 29 approved values for sport, 7 proposed yet 108 in the uk planet.osm excerpt. I think the current method of proposing features takes too long and would be unable to cope with such a volume of new tags. I believe this may be putting people off proposing tags they are using. Instead I think fast track proposals should be introduced for some keys like sport and shop. Values for those keys would sit in a fast track list for a period of time. If no objections are made during this time period the value will be moved into the approved features list. -- DavidD _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
