[OSM-talk] Proposed automated edit of some barrier=kerb kerb=raised nodes (forum crosspost)

[osmuser63783]

Hi

Thanks

I've gone ahead with the edit now, after being encouraged to do so in the community forum. You can see the changesets here:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/osmuser63783-bot/history

I get it - the suggestion which tag to use instead should come from the community, not from an app developer, and this mailing list isn't the place for this discussion.

I feel like I should add that I stumbled upon this issue before someone else pointed out in the German forum that it leads to routing issues. I only proposed this edit because I think there was a more general data problem.

Thanks all.
