Re: [overpass] Date ranges with Overpass API

Hi Roland,

filtering by date (ranges) is probably a more involved topic, as the
recent discussion on Irish Townlands show.

A simple date conversion and comparison of a `start_date` tag won't
really fit this tagging schema. And there's use cases such as "find all
objects which had a particular name on a given date".

What's your thoughts on this?

best,
