I do that, too, when I do address points or building footprints. I don't propose importing my county's address points (because of data quality issues) or its building footprints (because of licensing issues) so that happens manually on a catch-as-catch-can basis. If you're proposing 'addr:street' on the way, that's fraught with another set of issues - but I don't think that's what you're proposing. -- 73 de ke9tv/2, Kevin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
