Re: [Tagging] Non Proposed Features

Perhaps all contributors should be required to vote one way or the other. It should not be an option, and failure to do so after agreeing to such, should have penalty/consequence(like OSMF having right to then convert it to ODbL). Eric Jarvies On Aug 28, 2010, at 11:59 PM, John Smith wrote:

Hi, I made a new proposal of natural_protection tag (section new proposal of http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/Key:natural_protection). Can you comment it? I'm still a newbee so before making a definitive proposed page, I want to know your opinion. Thanks in advance, Xan.
