I meant additional to the roles for the boundary relation above (cutted). admin_centre for 1 or more nodes capital if not equal to admin_centre or more than one admin_centre present. >> The semicolon (;) is >> defined as value separator so we could have capital=4;6;8 or similar. > > This just sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

As we are talking about admin_level (<-> capital) on nodes and it was mentioned that it might be easier to use and I am not sure if it is used.
