now, that this has fortunately become something more simple (e.g. not implying that the water is not drinkable, not replacing amenity=drinking_water etc.), I have some additional questions: what exactly is a "water_tap"? Does it require that you can shut it down or open it (i.e. are "always on taps" also taps?)? Are particular "interface" specifications possible/required (e.g. standard plug to attach a tube, diameter for the tube). Around here the typical settings for water flow are: always on or 3 types of devices to turn it on: a push button (you have to hold to get water flow), another kind of push button (you press once and get flow for some time without having you to continue to push) or a turning handle to open/close the valve. Also I wonder if we should have tags for hot/cold water and those taps that mix hot and cold in the same tap? I find this sentence strange in the definition: "Unlike a water well, water tap usually connects to water pipes rather than to a natural source of water." Isn't a tap the "final interface to who needs water", usually with a valve to open and close flow? How would that relate to a water well (a device to pump water from the ground)? I thought a water well could have just as well a water tap at the end of its pipes to control the flow. I would also change "public" to "publicly usable" (or publicly accessible), because this is what does matter (and we don't want to exclude "privately owned, but publicly usable taps" in this generic proposal, do we?). cheers, Martin
