[mkgmap-dev] Make --add-pois-to-areas default?

Sat Aug 15 20:16:36 BST 2009

Hi,

Generally, I'd say "Yes, we should make this the default".

In the long run, we should consider, if this should be
somehow modifiable by the style. Either by letting the
style say "Don't go and create a POI" or the other way
round.
I don't have a particular opinion on this. I just think, we
should at least think about it.
