<br>
please note that in many regions the acceptance of cash is the default <br>
assumption. I would be VERY unhappy if "members of the cash community" <br>
started to tag every shop in my country with "payment:cash=yes" just for <br>
the shop to appear on someone's "cash accepted here" page, and I would <br>
likely revert such an edit if I found it to be an organised effort.<br>
<br>
On the other hand of course it makes sense to tag those shops that <br>
deviate from the national default and reject cash payments with <br>
"payment:cash=no".<br>
<br>
I welcome your interest in this matter (as I myself am wary of the <br>
decline of cash as a privacy-friendly payment method) but please do not <br>
make the same mistake that other enthusiasts sometimes make and build a <br>
simple website that then (because instead of working with sensible <br>
standard assumptions) claims that hundreds of thousands of shops in the <br>
country don't accept cash just because they don't have a payment:cash=yes.<br>
<br>
Bye<br>
Frederik<br>
