Regarding the grid square border areas, one easy protocol I used in Saint-Marc, Haiti was this one: please do not choose a square adjacent to another one that is currently edited.
Very sensible approach. I think the early task manager versions actually handed out random tasks under the restriction that it should be near the last own edit and far from other currently active tasks.

I don't believe Potlatch causes a problem since it shows as an overlay. The issue occurs when people merge the grid with the data they download from JOSM. Perhaps a warning when the grid is downloaded will help with the situation. Jaakko, to answer your question I don't think we should leave it for the validators. It is hard to get people to validate as it is. I think editing a little over the edge is fine. There shouldn't be problems with editing conflicts really at least no worse than when we didn't have the Tasking Manager and people just edited where they thought work needed to happen. -Kate On Sat, Jun 23, 2012 at 10:59 AM, Jon Bigus Fatfrog <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > The boxes shouldn't be in the db.
