I think, no. This proposal for the new cases, mostly. But if CZ or SK or A community decide to switch for a new one scheme, conscription numbers could be mapped via addrN. > Can you describe the root cause of why these structures ended up with two > addresses? Let's imagine that we have a building with facades for 2 or 3 or 4 streets. Let's go along any of these streets, and mark buildings with numbers without gaps. In such case building will have 2, 3, 4 addresses. And they are in use and applied to whole building. It's how bunch of addresses rows like below appears. number1-street1-city number2-street2-city One more example: We have a town with some neighborhoods. And buildings inside neighbor are not arranged into grid. And in such case people are use scheme like this number_inside_neighbor - neighbor_ref_number - city but still buildings have addresses like number-street-city Next case: We have a small town, with some streets which are not strongly arranged into greed And number - street - city is not cozy, streets may haven't names, so number-city may become usable. After town grows up, there may pop out number-street-city addresses.
