Re: [Talk-us] Undiscussed mass-revert by user Nakaner-repair

Thank you Michael for your thorough history of the situation. I think it clearly explains what has happened and is still happening. I personally am not sure how to go forward. I suppose that there will always be mappers who are not following good practices and I suppose that those who are paid to

I like this idea. Maybe move the existing instance to tasks-old.o.u and start a new instance on tasks.o.u. On Fri, Apr 20, 2018 at 8:39 PM, Joe Sapletal wrote: > If they ran side-by-side for a week or two, if possible, that would be > nice. Then those who have active

Re: [Talk-us] Refreshing tasks.openstreetmap.us

If they ran side-by-side for a week or two, if possible, that would be nice. Then those who have active projects that want to keep them alive on the new server could make sure they close the areas already done. That could help cut down on the duplicate effort. Or at minimum we could take a

Consider it a "nice to have" from my perspective, but it would save a lot of duplicated effort. On Fri, Apr 20, 2018, 17:54 Ian Dees wrote: > Unfortunately I haven't seen a way to migrate from 2 to 3 easily. If > anyone out there is willing to help with that I'd be very

Unfortunately I haven't seen a way to migrate from 2 to 3 easily. If anyone out there is willing to help with that I'd be very happy! On Fri, Apr 20, 2018 at 5:49 PM, Paul Johnson wrote: > Is there any way to move any tasks as they are right now? I'm presently > using the

Is there any way to move any tasks as they are right now? I'm presently using the tasker to handle TIGER cleanup in Oklahoma County. On Fri, Apr 20, 2018, 17:35 Ian Dees wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm looking to shut down the current Tasking Manager 2-based service at >

[Talk-us] Refreshing tasks.openstreetmap.us

Hi all, I'm looking to shut down the current Tasking Manager 2-based service at http://tasks.openstreetmap.us/ and start fresh (with no data migration) on Tasking Manager 3. I'm doing this so we can more easily support HTTPS and to get it off an aging physical server and onto "the cloud". I

[Talk-us] STOP - All vehicles must register

The case of non-hard-surface roads brought this to mind. There are a few roads across the Adirondack Park that are open to the public (in summer) and have endpoints that look like http://i65.tinypic.com/2enq9ew.jpg In this case, I already recognize - tag the two cabins (they are a ranger

[Talk-us] Undiscussed mass-revert by user Nakaner-repair

Hi All, I noticed that user Nakaner-repair just reverted 1000+ changesets throughout the United States without any discussion in the local community. Nakaner-repair points to a thread in the German forum [0] that seems to indicate that they think these edits were made by paid mappers. Having not
