Hi Janko, I disagree. If (!) any software uses that particular tag, it should/would try to translate at least some of these tags to it's UI language, getting: "Sandwiches, Mars, Snickers, Kaugummi, Schokolade, Salzige Snacks, Eis" as a german example for the tag you mentioned. For showing it as it

+1 My point is not to argue for one set of tags over anther; but to illustarte that such pinnickety bikeshedding [1], based on one's personal experiences and preferences, is unhelpful and inefficient. LOL I totally agree with Andy — Some of these discussions are seemingly endless maybe because, a

How the heck is any map going to cover ALL the practically infinite variations we might invent to describe shops and other items? It's crazy! The whole point of tagging in more detail is for maps to be able to be more selective about what kind of food/drink vending machines they show. As poin
