[OSM-talk-nl] Bot Phone Number Formatting Proposal

[Marc Zhou Toneu]

Hi all,

Just a follow up from my initial email, I do intend on expanding the scope of the tags including contact:phone, contact:mobile, fax and contact:fax once that the bot has proven that it is able to correctly format the phone numbers.

Kind regards,
Marc
