I want to set the access=official proposal[1] to abandoned and the feature page[2] to deprecated. Since this tag is mostly used in Germany I have documented the case in the german forum[3] and got only positive feedback so far.
Key points in english: - compared to designated, official is used much less (foot 3.3%, bicycle 2.0%, horse 4.1%, psv 15,1%) - The usage apart from foot=official is not increasing since 2014 [4] - Regarding the main pages, Wiki currently uses it only on Tag:access=designated, Key:bicycle_road - designated is now defined as official was meant to be regarding "dedicated usage" - designated is not defined as official regarding access - designated still allows other traffic - wanderreitkarte.de uses blue signs for official and grey for designated - iD does not use official - JOSM does use it in the Road Signs plugin and some presets as drop-down Is anybody against this change?
