[mkgmap-dev] House numbers

Sun Sep 17 13:34:26 BST 2023

Hi.
I have misunderstood.
What i really wanted to say is that i dont think a change is needed.
If there is no roadname, there is none.
Searching for an address with help of the place name (entered as a street name 
on garmin device) + the number will find the correct location anyway.

Regards
Karl
