Simon, An example of the kind of thing we'd like to send messages.
Sending messages that you should try a harder challenge For example, if the average time to fix a task in challenge foo is 30 seconds, and you only take 20 seconds, maybe you should try something harder Sending messages about false fixes If I claim to have fixed 2000 tasks, but then the server sees that all 2000 still remain as problems, we want to send a message This isn't an exhaustive list, but it's the kind of thing where we'd like to reach out to OSM users, and right now, there's no way to do that without implementing it ourselves. - Serge On Mon, May 5, 2014 at 10:43 AM, Simon Poole <si...@poole.ch> wrote: > > > Am 05.05.2014 15:52, schrieb Serge Wroclawski: > >> >> The problem is that we are needing to send messages to users.
