Of cause what is missing here is that since this 'vote' was only in Russian then the vast majority of us would not even be able to vote anyway. There should perhaps be a rule about needing all votes to carry an English translation, since the consensus IS that all tagging is carried out IN English. Getting changes to the main tagging pages would have to be in English anyway? So is there any validity to this vote anyway? The main definition of landuse should follow the international standards, and that includes 'military' as a basic definition anyway. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
