[OSM-talk-be] Lang usages and modifications in BXL

Hello,

It was agreed upon that, in Brussels, whoever adds the name could decide 
the order. This was meant as a sort of incentive for people to go out 
there and be the first to map an area.

So in this case, if the order was changed, this for me is disrespectful 
to the original mapper and should be reverted.

Best regards,

Dennis
