Hi,
I have come up with some detail tagging for rest areas but want to get
some oversight on it and help with one aspect.

Easy(?) Details
Some of these have time limits - easy enough to use a conditional max
stay tag
rest_area:condition:maxstay=20
Stops people 'camping' over a long period.
Restricted to HGV use only, use access tags
access <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access>=no
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:access%3Dno> withhgv <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:hgv>=yes
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:hgv%3Dyes>
More difficult detail
One I am having problems with, where they can be used for 'camping' with a
caravan/camper-van (but probably not a tent).
rest_area:camping=caravan
or
rest_area:camping:caravan=yes
would convey the meaning .. but is it a 'good' tag that would allow for other
things and follow other tagging methods?
caravan=yes could simply mean access and not convey the camping aspect?
Note the max stay would still apply (if there).
Any thoughts on tagging these features for rest areas?
