Hi all friends of good tagging,
The proposal is opened for one week now and I plan to put it to voting
phase at Tu, 7.9.2010. If you have any comments or ideas or think that
the proposal needs to be changed significantly, I'd like you to speak up
during the next week.

- nodes left and right of the crossing describing the curb, tag

My guess would be that barrier=ditch would be for a ditch that is dry the
