As a Brit living overseas for most of my life, I've been through 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Map_Features and tried to add 
entries to the comments area to help explain UK-centric terms and 
amplify others for non-English speakers.

1) Would one of the longer term members have a quick flip through and 
make sure I haven't deviated from previously agreed/understood 
meaning?  I assume, for instance, that forest/wood means lots/not so 
many trees rather than the older definition of hunting area!

2) Can I ask if the ISO 3601 YYYY-MM-DD format should be standard for 
all dates? I'll add that too.  www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime
