Hi, I thought about this as well when I read the current proposal. In Germany there are lot's of shops that are named as being primarily for selling lottery tickets, but looking into it they are usually selling the common combination of newspapers and magazines, tobacco and so on.

Hi, I'm not happy with contact:webcam, as the contact namespace IMHO serves a different purpose. contact:webcam could define whom to contact for questions regarding the webcam, or whom to contact BY webcam (as contact:phone is for how to contact e.g. a shop by phone). 1) I would change the order, a

I would say it assumes hat cyclists in theory have to obey traffic rules and a map should reflect what they have to do, not what they do. Walkers cross lawns wherever they want if that's a shortcut and rules against that aren't enforced strictly, but we don't map any possible shortcut. regards Pet
