-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Hi there, I'm very proud to announce that finally Kort[1] (the OSM game) writes back it's collected solutions to OSM! All changes are made by the OSM user "kort-to-osm"[2], so it's easy to track them. Our actions were coordinated with the local (Swiss) community and the Data Working Group (DWG). According to the "Mechanical Edit Policy"[3] all changesets have the tag mechanical=yes and the users profile page contains all relevant information about the project. With all the extra information in the changeset comment, we are able to trace back an edit through Kort and even further to its source. By the way, for most missions KeepRight[4] is the source. Until now we made over 280 changes. All changes were validated by at least 3 users. There are still lots of solved missions that are just waiting to be validated, so that we are able to finally provides them to OSM. The source code for kort-to-osm is available on GitHub[5], you are very welcome to open issues or provide pull requests. The underlying python library to access the OpenStreetMap API is osmapi[6]. ***Apart from this big step, Kort itself has some new features:*** - Upgrade to Sencha Touch 2.3 -> now all major browsers are supported (IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari) - Thanks to our new database server, we can provide missions in the USA as well (no more limits!) - Our homepage kort.ch <http://kort.ch> is available in English, too :) Any remarks, comments, issues etc. are very welcome!
