Nice!<br>
Troisdorf uses Mapbender which is using layers much in the same but
more sophisticated way I mention below ...<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
You can find some usage of OSM related to communes <a
href="https://www.google.be/search?&q=site%3Abe+commune+%28OpenStreetMap%20OR%20OSM%29">here</a>
and <a
href="https://www.google.be/search?&q=site%3Abe+gemeente+%28OpenStreetMap+OR+OSM%29">there</a>.<br>
For example, first that catches my eye and that I open: <a
href="http://www.ellezelles.ecolo.be/?Ma-commune-sans-TTIP-TAFTA">Ma
commune sans #TTIP / TAFTA ?</a> by œucolo.<br>
<br>
<br>
Those who got municipalities interested in OSM are lucky fellows
(1).<br>
<br>
Municipalities however are an answer to the former question
"Subject: Idea?" to make some money.<br>
<a href="http://www.papou.byethost9.com/maps/OpenLayers.html">I
recall my page</a> showing how to easily make not only one POI map
but also a mix of several sources.<br>
We could propose municipalities and other establishments to host
their POIs on our own server.<br>
Unlike in my examples, the details of the POIs would be in the OSM
database itself.<br>
The customers would send by e-mail updates in the form of OSM tags
to validate & paste right into JOSM:<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">building=house ...<br>
shop=... or other feature<br>
name=...<br>
addr:city=<municipality><br>
addr:place=<part-municipality><br>
addr:street=...<br>
addr:housenumber=...<br>
addr:postcode=...<br>
contact:email=e-mail_address<br>
contact:fax=+32-n-<fax><br>
contact:phone=+32-n-<phone><br>
contact:website=<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://">http://</a>...<br>
image=<image><br>
wikipedia=<wikipedia><br>
</blockquote>
<br>
The POI map data would be a simple list of OSM objects IDs.<br>
A POI cache would probably be needed for performance.<br>
<br>
Cheers

I wrote before that every time I proposed OSM tagging (to them or
other organizations), either I got no reply or they picked my idea
and they did it with Googlemaps.<br>
Lately, I met our bourgmestre and I mentioned the OSM boundary one
of of our "part-municipalities". Firstly, I was amazed how well he
knows it despite it belongs to history. But secondly I was
disappointed he replied that drawing it is totally uninteresting. I
had no time to convince the busy man about OSM and the many of you.<br>
I also proposed to map municipality related car sharing stops (where
sort of subscribed hitch hikers stop subscribed cars) and make a POI
map. Not only made they the map with Google but also they
disregarded adding the stops to OSM (and moreover I couldn't have
OSM tell me the tags to use for that particular feature).<br>
Etc.<br>
