Hi Brian,
I would tend to agree with you. For HOT it may work well as most of that
mapping is done from aerial imagery by people all over the world. However
for organising local mapping efforts it doesn't work so well. One example
is that you seem to have to divide up tasks by the map squares - you can't
for example have a list of features to map (like we did with the allotments
project).
The current cake and wiki table system seems to work just as well (probably
better)

Hi Rob
Not very user friendly - I see there are 26 tasks but there's none
showing on the map to click on. Randomly clicking on the map gives me a
tile as a task and prompts me that the data will appear in JOSM if it's
already running - it doesn't. Re-reading your mail I see it says select a
square so this is probably how it works but it's not obvious on first
use! Most of the stuff in West Brom lost on redaction is POIs which will
require a ground survey - I replaced almost all the ways before April 1st

Hi All,
As suggested I have signed up to the tasking tool and defined an area for
West Bromwich to Wednesbury for redaction bot cleanup. If you are
interested in getting involved, log in using your OSM details and select
a square to work with:
http://rebuild.poole.ch/job/24
The redaction bot has impacted on the following nodes/ways:
http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=redactionbot&lon=-2.00656&lat=52.53362&zoom=13&overlays=overview,bot_point_superseded,bot_line_superseded_cp,bot_line_superseded,bot_point_modified,bot_line_modified_cp,bot_line_modified,bot_point_deleted,bot_line_deleted_cp,bot_line_deleted
Thoughts on the usefulness / lack of usefulness of this tasking tool are
welcome (I already have some thoughts but will not bias your opinion at
this stage).
Regards,
Rob
ps I can set up new areas if anyone is interested.
