It's a first go at a simple visualization. We'll get better at it, and the raw data will be published so that those with the motivation can build their own visualizations. So, no, it's not misleading. As I understand it that graphic represents all accounts, including bots, and rectangular areas are proportional to the square-root of the total number of edits per account. The square-root was chosen because the linear proportion or the largest contributors swamped the following contributors even more. But hey, that was a week ago, and more contributors have accepted since that image was made. So take it as a preliminary data point. And the raw data will be available soonish so we can all draw our own graphs and charts. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
