We do something similar, some remote towns have been classified as cities to make them render sooner not due to populations, but due to importance to the regional importance to areas, although some of these places call themselves cities, but that's more ego than anything. I was at one point going to suggest place=regional_centre instead of using place=city but that was more or less when I started and never got back to it. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
