[Tagging] Unsuitable?

Hi! Since when is "unsuitable" an accepted value for the access keys? I always thought that the access keys describe legal restrictions. best regards, Martin [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access#Values ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@open

Re: [Tagging] Unsuitable?

Re: [Tagging] Unsuitable?
