Hi,
I have left this for a while. But I don't see it going anywhere in terms of the
tag=value.
The initial proposal started on 6 February 2015, has been voted on and
reformatted to address issues raised.
Link to the proposal =
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_Features/amenity%3Dreception_desk
For those not familiar with the proposal.
A Reception Desk provides a place where people (visitors, patients, or
clients) arrive to be greeted, any information recorded, the relevant
person is contacted and the visitor/s, patient/s, or client/s sent on
to the relevant person/place.
It is particularly useful to know the location of the reception desk
when it is located away from the typical place (near a front entry) or
where there is only one amongst a number of large buildings. First seen
as a suggestedextended tag for camp sites
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Extend_camp_site%7C>,
thought to have a wider application to offices, hotels and educational features.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I have changed the documentation (many times) hopefully it addresses most issues that have been raised.
One issue that I have not address is when someone wants to have one node with more than one amenity on it.
This occurs for many key=value situations.
Firstly .. it would be possible to create two nodes and place the different
values on the different nodes. That is the solution I use.
Secondly ... it has been suggested to use a format of a subtag where value2=yes
is placed under the key=value1.
e.g.
amenity=bbq
reception_desk=yes
I have not seen (nor sought!) documentation for this .. as I don't use it.
-------------------------------
The present proposal format in the upper section shows what the result should
look like, while the lower section has the verbose explanation etc.
I don't like the title 'Rationale' .. and have appended 'Verbose Explanation'
as a simpler, clearer title.
I have also added sections on the key, value etc .. as I think that is easier
to follow (and I don't get mixed up in my documentation! :-)).
--------------------
So there it is .. voting soon? Depending on any discussion relevant to the
key-value.
Discussion of the format etc ... ok .. but not fundamental to the proposal
itself, so should not delay voting.
