Chris,

</div>
<div>Nicolas Chavent (in cc) has been working to tie the OSM tags to
the UN Spatial Data Infrastructure for Transport. He and I worked for
many years together on disaster response for the UN and I just got
evac'ed out of Haiti and helped streamline the OSM tags based on field
conditions, so I think that OSM wiki now reflects our inputs and we are
building support on the ground for use of these tags. I would like to
encourage you to use them as well to the extent possible. Best of
luck. --cj</div>
