That all is quite good for places with only one roman-script name. But I'm thinking in this case: name:es=Cataluña (This is the name in Spain's official language, which is official there since Catalonia is part of Spain) name:ca=Catalunya (This is the official name, it is in local language) name:en=Catalonia (This is the name in OSM's official language) How to tag name=* for that? How to render? An it can become more complicated, as in Basque Country most places have both spanish and basque names as official: name:es=Vitoria (=name:en) name:eu=Gasteiz official name: Vitoria/Gasteiz and some places where both names are the same (like Barakaldo) so official name is obviously not Barakaldo/Barakaldo or, just with one local and official name, but different names for people which use that map a lot, like british and german tourists in Canary Islands: name:es=Islas Canarias name:en=Canary Islands name:de=Canarische Inseln Noel er Envite _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
