If I would get such a survey from any of the tens of webapps for which I created a account that I used once, the answer would be something like
"I wanted to know what this service is about, and so I added my house. But this is not something I to do during my spare time for a longer period." I guess the answer will be universal to all hobbies. How many people drop out of guitar classes after a few lessons, stop following a course on learning a foreign language, going to dog school with their dogs, ... ? People try something new and when they loose interest or don't like, don't see a benefit, they start doing something else. It's easier to use Google maps, "I just want to consume data, not produce it." Just some observations from what I've seen around me. regards m On Tue, May 19, 2015 at 2:40 PM, Daniel Koć <daniel@koć.pl> wrote: > W dniu 19.05.2015 14:25, SomeoneElse napisał(a): > > Also, it's worth mentioning that despite people sometimes describing >> OSM as "unfriendly" the vast majority of changeset discussion >> comments, especially to new users, are very friendly and "happy to >> help". >> > > That's why I want to have some hard data: we really don't know it (on the > whole project level) what are the common problems or how many casual > mappers gets the help.
