Re: [talk-au] OSM Notes

[David Wales via Talk-au]

I'm guilty of leaving some abandoned notes! I got the notifications when they 
were cleaned up recently.

I mostly left the notes because I was using StreetComplete, and wanted to 
capture data that StreetComplete couldn't capture. I intended to come back and 
resolve the notes, but clearly forgot!

However, I did double check some of the recently closed notes, and at least one 
had been closed without incorporating the information (postbox collection time) 
into the map. I took the opportunity to belatedly add this.

Regards,
David Wales
