Amigos, I no longer feel this proposal is appropriate, therefore I'm canceling it. Thanks for all your comments.

It is still in *Draft* status, and can be seen in the following link: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Serving_System Cheers, John 2014-02-24 16:38 GMT-03:00 Fernando Trebien <fernando.treb...@gmail.com>: > I remember having been to restaurants here in Brazil where the food > that is served as "all you can eat" is not exactly the same as the one > you may order from a regular menu.
