I'm not an English native speaker, maybe that's why shop=lawyer sounds strange to me. All lawyers that I know of I'd actually consider offices, not shops. I believe that they should be better put in a different category. Or would you also tag shop=architect, shop=energy_provider, shop=doctor, shop=foreign_languages, shop=military_consultant, shop=fire_department, shop=mailorder ? cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
