Yes, but STILL - tags should be self-explanatory. It would make life easier for everyone (even those that DO read the wiki). People will make less mistakes if tags are self-explanatory. Self-explanatory tags are also easier to memorise. I'm not suggesting at all that people shouldn't read the wiki. >> E.g. stop=both could be misunderstood to mean "both directions", or "both >> intersecting ways", etc. > > stop=both_sides? Propose something :-) I already did: stop=at_last_node stop=at_first_node stop=at_first_and_last_node This is, after all, *exactly* what you're trying to denote. > If I understood "East-bound" and "West-bound" correctly, you mean: > > http://imagebin.ca/view/bJWJB6.html Unfortunately I can't access that image :( See mine: http://imagebin.org/60947 So for A, stop=at_last_node. We need to make clear that the green car doesn't have to stop when it crosses the last node of A. Hence, maybe something like "The stop sign only applies when the node is approached from the way that is tagged". _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
