[OSM-talk] Interesting tags

[Lester Caine]

OK I can understand the vast range of 'values' in the tag fields, but I 
think we need to tighten up on the names a little

My import just  kicked out at
"this was a children's playarea with a path leading through it. Didn't 
want to look too dodgy"
in the key field.

OK I know that the ' should have been quoted which actually caused the 
problem, but three hours in :(

What are the chances of 'tiling' the planet.osm file, that is packaging 
it up in 250Mb chunks to make it easier to work with, and recover after 
problems?

I think things are already at a size where I need to work out some way 
of simply syncing with the on-line data.
