I don't think you were unclear. The response probably refers to the fact that, unfortunately, very few business websites offer contact data in a machine-readable format. Therefore such a feature could only be used very rarely, making it hard to justify the implementation effort. However, all hope is not lost: This functionality would be ideal for a JOSM plugin. And it's not unheard of that popular plugins later make it into JOSM itself. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
