[OSM-talk] [tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - (Trolley)

[Ken Guest]

oh yes please. almost all trolleys I've encountered  around home
require 1 euro coins - except the ones at Aldi where 2 euro coins are
required.

Perhaps then I can expand on my script (and someone can update
openstreetbrowser) to filter stores by what denomination of coin is
required for using their trolleys?

What can we do to make this a reality? :D


thanks!

Ken
