</div>I agree. But in the meantime imho where available we should at least add<br>
that information to have them available in a clear and structured way<br>
together with the POIs. If at a later step we decide to split off<br>
certain information (opening hours, descriptions, ratings, ...) into a<br>
separate POI-database or something, then we're ready to go.<br>
