Hi Serge, We've been e-mailing about this project in private in the context of the activity stream stuff that's slowly being developed for osm.org - I think it would be perfect to have these descriptions in the stream, certainly better than "user X entered changeset XYZ" or anything else I can come up on my own during activity stream development.
I will sink my teeth into your project as soon as I can and we can continue the discussion. For now, happy birthday and good luck with the move again :) Paweł On Mon, Aug 20, 2012, at 16:07, Serge Wroclawski wrote: > Hi all, > > It's my birthday today and I have a tradition of giving a gifts on my > birthday.
