Except building=service, I won't add anything else for now. The proposal only regards local loop fixed landlines, other document will be needed to deal with mobile networks. For me, communication:*, telecommunication=* should finally be converted to telecom=* for physical paths and devices.

Especially when Internet is also provided over the same coaxial network. Then, it's equivalent to map : man_made=street_cabinet + street_cabinet=cable_tv + telecom=connection_point + telecom:medium=coax man_made=street_cabinet + street_cabinet=telecom + telecom=connection_point + telecom:medium=coax I'll try to add such example in the proposal. Replacing street_cabinet=cable_tv by street_cabinet=telecom + telecom:medium=coax isn't such a big deal and can be discussed here without requiring a proper proposal with vote. All the best François
