landuse=farm, which has to be changed. His NoFarm-Map helps to discover such areas. - Version 0.9.9 of Vespucci is now available! Simon Poole shares the news along with some details.
- User Rogehm brings up
the discussion about the already mapped building=conservatoryon the German forum. A OSM wikipage was created. - User dktue would like to map rescue guides. An internationally recognized tag is still being discussed, since these can be called “MRCC”, deviant from the proposed “ECC”, or different.
