Yes, exactly. It's the same thing. Anyway, the minicab_office is a UK definition. Nobody will understand that here. Sorry, I'm doing my first contributions to OSM. What's the policy about creating localized tags? Every country has some particular things. Remis, offices of the govertment that are important here, etc. Regards, Diego -- Diego Woitasen _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
