Hi everyone,

as you may or may not have noticed i have recently worked a bit on the 
existing Tagwatch script and changed a few things. 

My changes includes
* the use of a template parsing engine and thus a better looking website
* use of the Osmarender 6 rules file
* listing how often every tag got used on nodes / ways
* what other tags are in use with a specific tag
* if the tag has a documentation on the OSMwiki

Together with these changes i have crated the tagwatch sites for 24 countries. 
All planet.osm excerpt are taken from http://roland-ramthun.de/osm/extracts/
If you miss a country and can point me to the location of the excerpt I'm glad 
to add this as well.

I'll try to update these statistics at least once in the month now, as i feel 
they are quite helpfull to detect common tagging errors and reflect what tags 
are really in use in the community.

website can be found at: http://etricceline.de/osm/index.htm
the sourcecode can be found here: http://etricceline.de/osm/Tagwatch.tar.gz
(I'll hope someone can add it to the svn, as i have no account there (and 
general connecting problems with the university proxy here)

cheers
Joerg
