Let me disagree. You are implying that just because I can add stuff to map features, I can also decide to mark all highway=* as deprecated? I think we should supercede highway=* with path=* because that makes so much more sense. ;-) > Well, whole Map Features is about how people "should" tag things (not > how they "must" tag things).

It is a collection of tags that many people use to tag specific things often together with a list of applications that can make use of the tags listed. It's not normative, it's a help for me if I want to tag a "gate" and let's me quickly discover how others have tagged gates and it (hopefully ) also let's me discover which renderers make use of that tag. spaetz _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
