Great work and I've got a few questions that may help with our
Louisville import and upcoming imports.
http://www.civicdataalliance.org/gis-open-data-american-printing-house-open-street-map/
1) I looked at some of your areas already conflated. There seems to be
lots of Crossing Buildings, Ways, Buildings/Ways errors. Shouldn't these
be fixed by the user? We are also merging POIs into
buildings/addresses, is that required too?
2) Your areas are so much larger than ours, with 281 for all of
Baltimore vs 575 for the smaller Louisville. Isn't that hard for users
to import? Even at our sizes it can take someone 30+ minutes to complete
an area. But maybe we are missing something and should have created
larger areas.
3) Do you have a step-by-step Contributor Guide like other imports have?
We'd like to add some of your tips to ours.
4) Does anyone know if the tasks.openstreetmap.us site can get updated
from version 1 to version 2.9+? The current version is buggy and lacks
some usability features (invalidated tasks differently, bigger map,
highlighting who did what) the new version has. Example:

Thanks!

The initial, automated phase of the import has now been completed using
scripts from the OSM Import Toolkit [1] and my imports account [2]. A task
has now been set up on the openstreetmap.us tasking manager for the manual
conflation and verification phase [3].
