Hi all!

I’d like to bring your attention to mapping of the lounges (usually in
airports, but can be found anywhere). There is already a de-facto used
tag Tag:amenity=lounge
- OpenStreetMap Wiki
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dlounge>, so I’d like to
get the clear status de-jure and promote the mapping of the lounges across
the community.

Lounge is a comfortable area, typically located in a transport hub (airport
or train station). Usually it also provides some extra amenities such as
food, showers, toilets, internet connection.

Seems like the original proposal
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal:Lounges> was abandoned,
however it is actually used by mappers (e.g. 1 2
<https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/how-to-map-security-control-indoor-in-airports/119759/2>).
So I decided to revive the process, cleaned up and clarified the existing
wiki page and put some definitions into the new proposal. I encourage
everyone to review the proposal and share your thoughts, suggestions, and
any relevant experiences. Constructive feedback on the following aspects
would be particularly valuable:

   - Possible improvements or adjustments
   - I’m not sure about the rendering part, should I keep it or remove it
   completely?

See the full proposal in the Wiki
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal:Amenity%3Dlounge>

Please discuss this proposal directly here in the Community Forum (
https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/rfc-feature-proposal-amenity-lounge/119794/1
).

Best regards,
Oleg.
