Me either, but this idea is documented: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:source "May also be used as a namespace prefix to specify the source of a single attribute" I think this is a good way for mappers to contribute constructively even when they're not 100% sure (particularly in areas like Aus with fewer mappers per sq-km). It makes it easier for mappers like you to "retag" when necessary, because then you DO know whether they have or haven't "had more than just the imagery to go on". _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
