<div>Dear François & Jo,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> There are 240,000 drinking fountains nodes (with the two
tag forms) tagged globally. Although, your suggestion seems a
reasonable one, unless there is master plan for unique id
maintenance,
I am loathe to adding ref tags which might end up being poorly
maintained stale pollution. </div>

<div>Dear Mateusz,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If I understand correctly, I can query the database for
historic data states. For how long is the historic data
maintained ?
Do all of the servers below have the historic data ? </div>

<p>The version number. <br>

<p>It should be noted that (for Nodes) id + version is
actually stable (Ways and Relations are more complicated).</p>
<p>So if you have id + version, you can</p>
<p>- check that it is the current version of the object (all
fine and dandy)</p>
<p>- check if there is a later (undeleted) version, check if
it (depending on your criteria) is still the "same
object", update version in your reference</p>
<p>- if the last version is deleted or your criteria for it
being the same object doesn't hold, search in the vicinity
for a replacement object.</p>
<p>Doing the same for Ways and Relations requires including
a location reference of some kind as geometry changes are
not reflected in the versions, but can work in principle
the same.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Dear All,
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am looking for a way to create permanent links
to specific objects (fountains and cafés) with
images within our application ... and I have a
couple of questions. <br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>How quickly do OSM node and ways numbers mutate
? What percentage should I expect to change each
year. If the percentage of ids mutates slowly
enough .. maybe this is still the best bad short
term option ? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was pointed to this wiki : </div>
<div><a
href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Permanent_ID"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Permanent_ID</a> </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>On the discussion page, it is mentioned that a
solution is being targeted for end 2020 . Will
there be a tool to translate actual osm node and
ways numbers to the new permalink ids. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Apparently Mangrove uses GEO URI to create
perma links towards objects. <a
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_URI_scheme"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_URI_scheme</a>.
How do they deal with node repositioning ? I
could create a link name with first 5 latitude num
followed by first 5 longitude num... but as soon
as someone moves the node I would get a broken
link... </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks for your help and advice</div>
