Thin end of wedge ... the things I've stated go in any kitchen .. thus 
can be used by the indoor mapping group too.Thus not specific to a camp.

I'm less inclined to a package .. someone objects to bit z, another to 
bit t .. and you get too many people voting against all of it due to 
their one gripe. So I'll try for one at a time approach and see if they 
go through that way. My thread is about man_made .. or some other 
starter to these kind of kitchen things..

The 'fee camps' in Oz are very free form .. in Germany you must place 
your tent in an area  .. at say section G53 ... they are very 
regimented.. when you get your site allocated at the front office you 
don't just go wandering around and select what you want, those were at 
paid sites .. free sites in Germany .. not found by me, well before OSM. 
Generally remote OZ = find your own site somewhere, bury your human 
waste and carry out the rest. If your taking National Parks, State 
Forests .. some have very nice facilities .. they usually charge at them 
though.

What other non tagged facilities are you thinking off? Toilets + 
benches, taps are done. Fire places? Oh .. washing lines? Most of Europe 
don't know what they are - they use dryers .. not the climate for a 
washing line.  Laundry .. usually in a building and can be tagged 
shop=laundry think that exists.
