I did a map once with links to local pubs. I found storing their
latitude and longitude was good enough for my purpose. While pubs
being converted from nodes to ways, or their accuracy of location
being improved based on bing imagery means the pub may move
slightly, the stored location was still near enough (and much better
than calculating based on say OpenData postcode centroids as most
web location stuff seems to do).
