[OSM-talk-be] Bicycle highways

[Erik B]

There is a problem with the 'network' tag for those Fietsostrades.
The change of the network tag of the HST-Route Leuven-Brussel by the 
creator 3 years ago from 'network=rcn' to 'network=lcn' is justified "to 
solve a color conflict with the cycle node network". This looks like 
tagging for the renderer?
The Fietsostrade (Antwerpen-Mechelen' doesn't have a network tag yet, 
what makes it less visible on maps.
Shouldn't they get tag 'network=ncn' because Fietsostrades can be 
considered as a national network equal to RAVel?
It would make those Fietsostrades better visible.
