[Tagging] Tagging of pitches within a campsite

[Tod Fitch]

I’ve created a proposal page at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/camp_site_pitch that, I hope, reflects the more recent discussion on this topic.

Please feel free to comment on it here, on the discussion page associated with that wiki entry or even go ahead and edit the proposal.

Cheers,
Tod
