[OSM-talk] Note tags

[Mike Collinson]

Tom, thanks for highlighting this proposal.

I've been using a "description=" tag for things I want the map user 
to see and "note=" for notes-to-self and fellow mappers for sometime 
now, in the arrogant assumption that all will see the light in time.

Some votes for (or against!) would be nice.
