Re: [mkgmap-dev] access=permissive question

I read the thread more. It seems the core of the disagreement is about whether the semantics of access belongs in java code or style files. I don't understand the problem, because it seems like Felix, who wants to have a bike map avoid bicycle=official routes, can use styles to turn those tags into bicycle=no, and then not get routed over them, because the java code will then see bicycle=no, and the fact that it would have accepted bicycle=official as bicycle=yes doesn't matter. The harder question in Felix's case is that, if I followed, he would like to not ride on a road if it has an associated official cycleway, because one can't, but if they are separate ways then maybe that's tagged bicyle=no, and that works ok.
