As for the key, i would prefer service:pet_boarding=cat;dog;rabbit because maybe a hotel can have this service for it's guests, or maybe a restaurant can board your pets while you eat. As for repeating values, I remember hearing about a future version of osm database where multiple identical keys would be possible. So you could have: service:pet_boarding=cat service:pet_boarding=dog service:pet_boarding=rabbit Does anyone know if this is still in our future? Janko
