Feature Proposal - Approved - Utility facilities

Dear all

The vote is now over on the Utility facilities proposal
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Utility_facilities

It has been approved with 19 yes, 4 no and 1 abstain (83%).
Thank you to all 24 contributors who vote there.

Some voters were worried about the amount of work induced by the replacement of several existing street_cabinet values.
No automated replacement was planned as it sounds necessary at first to review every existing feature to correct the utility=* value if necessary.
I’ll be involved in this in France, which holds a quarter of 100k covered objects.
Depending on the results there, it may be appropriate to go on with automated replacement. A dedicated proposal will be reviewed at the right moment if relevant.

Short term goal is to update wiki, editors presets and QA first.

Best regards.
