The intention is not for the Fixme tag to help users, but to help mappers. I guess I'm wondering if marking highway=cycleway when you're 99% sure it'll end up as a highway=cycleway (plus an additional tag to indicate that there's 1% chance that you're wrong) is better than marking, say, highway=road. I'm starting to think it is better. Remember that this is outer suburban Australia - we've got a lot of ground to cover, and not many people. I'd rather take a guess if I've got a fairly good idea (with a suitable note=* or *=unsure) than leave it for someone else... My question really is what kind of note=* or *=unsure would be most useful for other mappers. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
