Ok, that's a reasonable intent. But not a reasonable method, because the heuristic is flawed, because "storing the result of an osm query in osm data" is bad practice, and because a list of "normal" trees is insanely harder to maintain than a list of "special" trees. So there's not much to redeem the tag AFAICS. I'm happy to see it deleted from objects, surely starting with that one import and then double-checking the other changesets. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
