I agree it should be fixed in OSM. I recently submitted a patch to JOSM to flag this in the validation. https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/10693 There are still about 25,000 objects with place_name in them: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/place_name That's too many for me to fix, and I'm not keen on trying to do a mass tag change. Since this tag is widely used for cities, I'd like for mkgmap to read it in. On Wed Nov 05 2014 at 9:45:37 PM Nelson A. de Oliveira <naoliv@gmail.com> wrote:

place_name is a key that should be fixed in OSM itself: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/drop_ recommendation_for_place_name _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
