Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
Been looking at this relation today : 271476 ( see
<a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/271476" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/271476</a>
)<br>
<br>
It has an amenity set, but these points are widely spread out, I
think this goes against the intended idea behind amenity's.<br>
<br>
Any comments ?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
