[Talk-br] highway=living_street or residental in Brazilian cities?

[Gabriel Teixeira]

Hello Andreas (and don't worry about timezones :-),

When I have doubts about how to classify roads, I simply try to give a
classification that looks to be the best and leave to any future revisor to
improve it.
IMHO it better to take the time to map cities that have no streets mapped,
missing many of them or don't have names on the streets than taking too
long time just to classify a road.

Regards,
Gabriel
