Chris,

Nicolas Chavent (in cc) has been working to tie the OSM tags to the UN 
Spatial Data Infrastructure for Transport.  He and I worked for many 
years together on disaster response for the UN and I just got evac'ed 
out of Haiti and helped streamline the OSM tags based on field 
conditions, so I think that OSM wiki now reflects our inputs and we are 
building support on the ground for use of these tags. I would like to 
encourage you to use them as well to the extent possible.  Best of luck.
