[Openstreetmap] Tracks for ski resorts

My brother and me are going a trip to the "Hintertuxer Gletscher" in the
alps next week. Both of us have GPS... :-]

*whisper* But to say the truth: His tracklogs will worth nothing, because
*even more whisper*he's a BOARDER (Snowboarder)! MUAHAHAHAHA!!!

And as you all know "no offroad tracking" isn't really an option for these
boarders... ;-)

I have concern whether this belongs to the Open"Street"Map server...

Please, can you at least tag all your data uploaded with some key/value as
example "type=ski" or better? While currently this will have no impact on
the applet editor, in future they can differntiate the data from real
street data (as was the original plan to store at the osm server).


Even if we decide later, that all different data types goes to different
servers (all talking the osm protocol), this would simplify the seperation
process much.

(Unfortunatly, user defined key/value pairs are currently not implemented
in the online applet editor.., right?

But you could use JOSM to retag all data after upload easy.
