If you read my proposal again, you may notice that I didn't propose changing the existing descriptions. My preference for a power station is power=station. However, since that would require changing an existing definition, I proposed power=plant. If someone has another descriptor that is better than "plant" without stepping on existing toes, then I'm all for it. As far as the use of power=generator for a complete power plant, I'd prefer to limit that tag to, at most, the building that holds the generating equipment, not for the whole facility. I don't think that's bending the definition much, just restricting it a little more than the current use. -- Randy _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
