<div dir="ltr">Hey Peter,<div><br></div><div>I'd like to first say I didn't really know what your account was doing when I saw those stop_lines, but I certainly see some value in them now. I hope your company stays engaged and keeps contributing to OpenStreetMap!</div><div><br></div><div>I think there is more value in having the ways re-tagged than having them deleted. I think one of the important things is that the road_marking ways should be joined to any relevant intersecting ways (probably highways) with a node (<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px">utilsplugin2 should help).</span></div><div><br></div><div>-Vivek</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Wed, Sep 20, 2017 at 10:12 AM peter flier <<a href="mailto:peterflier@gmail.com">peterflier@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hello everyone,<br><br></div>This being my first post to this list, I hope it has gotten through. As Vivek has mentioned, we have a productive discussion about how best to address the digitization of stoplines and the havoc my approach has wrought upon all of you.<br><br></div>First, let me say I am sorry that my initial incursion into the new feature type was so categorically disruptive to people's workflows. I had attempted to propose this feature as a free to the public service my company was going to be providing as a secondary result of our work. I scoured OSM for a proper feature type that could be used for this purpose and found nothing that quite lined up (pun intended!), so I proposed my own and moved forward with it. It was only afterwards that I was informed of the experimental road_marking feature type which would encompass nearly all of the stop lines I would be adding.</div><div><br></div><div>If there are no objections to the re-tagging of these ways, I will move things over in bulk through JOSM and add future stop lines under the "road_marking= solid_stop_line" pairing.
