If you're indicating something that might be useful for someone (e.g. foot=yes/no), then yes, it should ultimately be recorded. Eventually. And yes, eventually, I would expect OSM will have more tags than it does now, as the scope of the project expands (note this doesn't mean it has to expand illogically, or without structure). _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
