I'm sorry to say, I sort of dropped out of the discussion when the small
changes to camp_site we started with evolved into the current one. My
mapping chores here in Thailand are so much more basic than the degree of
specification you're talking about. Here you're lucky to find a
waste_basket to tag and there are no dump_stations, dump_points,
waste=chemical_toilet, or whatever we end up tagging the place to deposit
the contents of RV holding tanks, in the entire country.

I winced when I read that the tag "rubbish" was being proposed as a new top
level tag. Sounds to these American ears as though another top level tag
with Anglo-centric overtones will be adopted. <g>

I'll continue lurking and when the time comes for a vote, will participate.
