[Talk-GB] Replacement of leisure=common

[Edward Catmur]

I note that you've linked
https://data.gov.uk/dataset/05c61ecc-efa9-4b7f-8fe6-9911afb44e1a/database-of-registered-common-land-in-england
- as this is OGL, I assume it's suitable for incorporation into OSM? Could
we pick that up as a small OSM UK project?
