From a random look around .. about half. <br>
<br>
There is yet another tag that has a fair amount of use ...
landuse=logging.<br>
I thing this might be landuse=forestry but in the harvesting stage.
<br>
I am yet to look at the age of these areas existence, I suspect they
are older than the time taken for trees to start growing and should
be landuse=forestry.<br>
Mainly in central Russia (or what ever it is called nowerdays,
sorry) and western Europe. <br>
Is it too late to stop this .. probably. It may well be the new
landuse=forestry! Well intended to separate it out from anyone
thinking of 'just trees'?<br>

I think landuse=forest should remain intact, for cases
where forestry is actually how the land is used.<br>
So the tag is not deprecated, it's just applicated more
consistently.<br>

So you're proposing to change the meaning of a tag that has
3.5 million uses?<br>
<br>
I'm sure that you have only the best of intentions, but, er,
good luck with that :)<br>

Yep. <br>
I too am of the opinion that landuse=forest is not a tag for future
use, the meaning is taken 2 ways. <br>
Much better to have 2 tags available for use of each meaning. <br>
