It's funny you say that because I just tried yesterday what you suggest. I sent an email to this ML about the tag "alt_name" which is used by the application Namefinder and has been promoted in only one email some months ago by the author of this application. The tag is not widely used, not only because it is not commonly required but also because it is documented nowhere. That's why I think we should - at least - write some words about this tag in the Map Features page. I could also create a wiki proposal and start the long and heavy voting process... So far, I received only two feedbacks, both positive. Do you consider that the consensus is reached ? Where is this method better than 10 votes in the wiki ? regards Pieren _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
