<p>I'd suggest making it clear that that table is currently for way
members only - it doesn't mention node members (start, end,
marker, etc.). This may be deliberate, or you just haven't
expanded it yet, but I'd definitely mention node members.</p>
<p></p></div></blockquote><div> Also, i guess backward and forward roles are for ways only, the other roles are more suited for relation members. Or not? Could I enter all the ways of a 3 Km medieval castle excursion to a viewpoint into the hiking relation holding the ways of the main route, each with the 'excursion' role? I think this should be explicit. </div><div><br></div><div>It seems to me that use of these roles leads to relations containing non-contiguous trails. I would call those relations collections rather than routes. Processing non-contiguous routes presents extra challenges for processing such as exporting routes and making elevation profiles.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">______________________________________________<br>
