[OSM-talk-be] Postalcode 12 in Rumst - Fixed

[Marc Gemis]

An update  on my problem with postalcode 12 appearing on some roads in
Rumst when you do a seach on openstreetmap.org.

I posted my question in the help forum. One of the nominatim maintainers (I
assume), dropped the node that was tagged with postal code 12. It was
somewhere in the nominatim database and could not be removed by editing via
Josm (or another editor).

Since then I found that nominatim often returns the wrong postal code for
streets in Hingene. I assume it is caused by their "closed node" algorithm,
which return a 9000 code, simply because it's the nearest node with a
postal_code. I solved this by adding a postal_code tag with the correct
number on the street itself. An associated street relation with the correct
number does not work.
