[OSM-talk] Using Notes in France

[JB]

Hey, I think you are loosing the point. It is different to say « Here is 
a pharmacy missing » (carry an information) than to say « here is the 
street name missing » (IMO carry no information). While I like the first 
one (and even prefer it wher the name is added), I don't like the 
second, that looks too much as remote note opening, and adds no 
information (IMO) to the contributor.
JB.
