We have set up http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/South_African_Tagging_Standards a year and a half ago and now someone wants to change it : http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-za/2008-November/000299.html And that's in a top 25 country with English as an official language. For the sake of conformity I'm quite happy to adopt the German standard namely that track defaults to motorcar=no.
