[Tagging] Salumeria(it) / charcuterie(fr) / Wurstwaren (de) WAS Re: Can OSM become a geospacial database?

[Dave Swarthout]

I have no idea how to tag a shop selling *salumeri*  but I do know that
shop=butcher and butcher=pork is totally wrong for a shop that sells cold
cuts. Johnparis is quite right that a butcher is someone who slices and
packages raw meat. In American English, the closest approximation for a
shop selling assorted cold cuts is deli. It's very unlikely that a butcher
would ever be involved in a deli operation.
