Hi,

yes, I think paving_stones is right, but I'm fairly convinced that it
was built wiggly on purpose, otherwise the politician wouldn't have had
a special word for it. I couldn't find anything on wikipedia about the
topic, unfortunately.

Cycling across is not a problem, if you don't mind the sound. I don't
think the whole width of the street is paved wiggly, just enough to let
the water drain, so skaters could use it on the sides.

I wasn't too concerned about the mapping for traffic users of the
street, more for flood prevention analysis, but maybe that's just not
within the scope yet.

I also would go with surface=paving_stones - and maybe add also
smoothness tag,
and agree with Fernando

    I think they are surface=paving_stones because:
    - the stones are very flat on top
    - it seems that the objective was to arrange them snugly, although
    the fit may have deteriorated a little
    - it seems pretty easy to ride a bike there, but not skate, which
    is what one generally expects from surface=paving_stones;
    surface=sett is a little more difficult for cycling because the
    stones are less flat and the surface as a whole is also less flat

    I think surface=sett is usually more like this:

        You can kind of see the gaps between the stones.

            I'm not sure I'm understanding the differences between
            surface=sett and surface=paved or if what I'm trying to
            map is covered by either. Where I live, there are some
            streets that are paved, but the stones aren't set firmly,
            so they wobble a bit when you drive/ cycle over them. It
            is perfectly safe, but it allows rainwater to drain
            quicker, at least I think that is the reason for this
            type of paving. It sounds a bit like a xylophone (well,
            lithophone, I guess), when going over them. Considering
            climate change and the higher likelihood of flooding etc,
            it would be important to map the difference between paved
            streets that don't allow for quick drainage and these
            loosely paved streets. There is probably some technical
            term for it. So, in short: Do we have a tagging scheme
            for those or not? Anne
