I've now finalised the proposal which deprecates the use of busway for bus
lanes (and in turn deprecate busway:left, busway:both, busway:right,
busway=lane, busway=opposite_lane) in favour of lanes:bus (not my favourite
tagging, though, due to similar issues as busway=lane) and bus:lanes (my
to-go tagging and the strongest of all). To a lesser extend, it also
deprecates the (rarely used) busway=opposite by proxy due to the recent
deprecation of cycleway=opposite and that (the documented)
busway=opposite_lane also gets deprecated.

Please discuss this proposal on its Wiki Talk page.
