I did learn from Toby Murray this morning that you can add
tiger:reviewed to the list of discarded tags in JOSM by going to
preferences->Advanced Preferences and adding tiger:reviewed to
tags.discardable. Then just reload JOSM for the changed to be active.
I'm not quite convinced since there can still be local uses and
conventions. I used it to show that I confirmed a road's name and where
it began and ended. Others use it to mean full survey with all
attributes and signage have been collected. But since JOSM defaults not
to show that flag visually, I've almost stopped updating it also. So I
have to agree that it is no longer as useful as it once was.
And regarding other projects: where I was thinking of a local mass
edit to confirm conguency and remove the flag after obtaining and
following a process to get a county to contribute data to OSM, it
wouldn't matter if the tiger:reviewed tag was present - I would still
match OSM roads to new data and investigate any differences.
Bottom line - no objection here though.
