I've written a definition for access=permit:
permit
Use is subject to prior authorization (eg written, photo, other), in the
absence of which the use (entry) may be denied. Permission (which may
only apply to certain transportation mode: bicycle, foot, etc.) is not
granted on the basis of individual assessment but can be obtained by
anyone. This is the difference of substance between private and permit,
because only the rightholders are given permission based on individual
discretion.
Could you check it out because it was created with the help of Google
translator.

I thought "*=permissive" meant: "You have no legal right use that on
this road/path/etc, someone else 'owns'/controls it. However they
allow
anyone to use it by default, but they reserve the right to kick you
out/off for any reason." And that doesn't sound like what you
describe.
You are absolutely correct. However, access=permit was only agreed
upon in the last
couple of months whereas those tags were added prior to that approval and
access=permissive was the best fit back then. I should have made it
clearer I was
describing what had been tagged and not endorsing what had been done.
Actually,
I only remembered access=permit after I'd sent that mail.
It seems like this permit system gives someone a (temporary)
_right_ to
drive their golf cart along those paths. I think
`golf_cart=permit` is
more accurate here.
I'd agree with you there. Certainly if I were mapping it now I'd use
access=permit. I'd
hesitate to change the existing tags without first contacting the
original mapper. Which I shall
leave to somebody else who feels like taking on that particular exercise.
