I think there are cases where you would tag 'amenity=shelter,waldhuette'.
There are waldhütten where you can find shelter, so both tags would have to
be used. Is it proper to combine both, or would one have to add two
'amenity' tags?
Now what constitutes a waldhütte?
1. a building that can be rented for events
2. commonly found in forests, not in urban areas
3. not commonly intended as sleeping place
Does this cover the meaning of the german term Waldhütte?
I left out restrictions relating to construction or comforts such as
electricity, heating &c. So waldhäuser can be tagged with this as well.
I don't think there is enough difference to warrant a distinction between
waldhütten and waldhäuser in OSM. Sorry for arguing about the differences
earlier.
