hi,

in talk-in we came to the conclusion that apart from taxis, many countries 
have vehicles like autorickshaws, jeeps, tuk-tuks etc. So we are implementing 
the following scheme:

amenity=taxi
vehicle=autorick
autorick=prepaid/meter

with appropriate symbols. In the main osm map this will show the taxi symbol, 
but in the India specific map it will show an autorickshaw - prepaid, metered 
or un metered. An example can be seen here:

this scheme  (or a suitably modified one) could be used in other countries too.
