[Talk-us] First bona fide mini-roundabout spotted

[Nathan Edgars II]

The problem seems to be that mappers needed a tag for a small roundabout 
on a node. Since all that was available was mini_roundabout, that's what 
we used. Had there been another tag, e.g. highway=roundabout, we 
wouldn't have this discussion. But mini_roundabout is now in use for a 
large number of miniature roundabouts that may not be strictly 
mini-roundabouts.

There's been a similar case recently with surface=cobblestone apparently 
not being "real" cobblestone but something called 'sett'. Someone tried 
to change the tag definitions, but it was way too late.
