[Accessibility] Import stop signs for blind persons in Katowice, Poland

[Alessandro Sarretta]

Hi Lukasz,

thank you for your proposal.

I have a couple of small questions:

  * you say
    (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_edits/luktar/Stop_signs_for_blind#Missing_stop_signs)
    that current objects in OSM are not enough for blind people, but in
    the examples
    (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_edits/luktar/Stop_signs_for_blind#Tagging_Plans)
    you're reusing those tags. Are you proposing just to add the new
    tags stop_no and stop_id to the existing ones?
  * regarding stop_no, I would suggest something different (stop_n or
    simply stop_number) because stop_no seems to me that there is no
    stop :-)

Ale
