Yeah, I'm asking myself why I started to participate to OSM two years
ago, when highway=path or building =* did not exist.
"culvert" is not in my small dictionnary. I'm sure it is the right
technical word but don't say to the contributors "don't tag if you
don't use the right technical word". This is the best way to
discourage newcomers.
