<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Footpaths and bridleways are numbered on definitive
maps but rarely on signposts or waymarks. Often numbered on a parish or
community basis (HA10, for example), their use appears to be for legal puposes
mainly, rather than as an aid to navigation. Having said that, my local
<EM>Chiltern Society</EM> footpath map is annotated with the definitve
numbers. So, I wonder what OSM mappers in GB feel about adding the
official numbers to such ways. I suspect copyright is
an issue because the rights of way numbers will invariably be on maps based upon
the Ordnance Survey, unless anyone knows that they are available from another
source. </FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
