Hi, When mapping seasonal closures here in Utah[1] I realized I am still missing a solid way to mark a road as closed for the season and then have some level of confidence that someone will look at it in the spring and 'reopen' it. More generally for someone to map a feature and somehow tag it as needing another look by a certain date.
I added a discussion section to the wiki[2] for the fixme tag where I propose adding the fixme:by qualifier to indicate the (approximate) date by which a mapper should look at the feature again. There should be more use cases for this. I can think of proposed or under-construction features for which you may know a projected start / finish date. Or semi-permanent features that you know will disappear at some point. I know HOT has interest in this kind of 'lifecycle' tagging as well.
