it might be clearer in some cases, but it is not in use. http://taginfo.openstreetmap.de:8003/search?q=access#keys there is 30 and less of each of these keys with prepended access. > Just because one method of tagging has more use than another, it doesnt > necessarily mean that its correct or the best way to do it, sure, but if you want to change the way almost all mappers do it, you should at first open a discussion about it. > especially > in the situation of having dozens of access tags (which arent even > classed under access) with different meanings depending on their > context. well, "classing" them under access (the wiki somehow already does this) will still keep it a high number. It will not suddenly become less complex. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
