Re: [talk-ch] Street name comparison for all of Switzerland

I think, in french (Switzerland), the capital letters are without an accent. I will change these names in OSM. But, now I've found an other Problem: In Schmitten FR [1] is a road in GWR named as an short-name: F. X. Müllerstrasse. The real Name is "Franz Xaver Müllerstrasse". And in OSM it is named like this. Till now, I thinked, we shouldn't use short names in OSM. I hope, this is still right. The problem is: if other users see on the GWR-list some other shorten streetnames, it will be possible, that they will change the name that it match to the GWR-list.
