I think splitting ways "when it suits us" is actually a good pragmatic approach. Having a clearly defined and documented standard for tagging individual lanes is a good goal, but while we wait for that (John?), using individual ways "when it suits us", and relating them with a relation is at least probably a pretty good *interim* solution (or long-term solution, if an individual lane-tagging proposal doesn't gain traction...). _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
