I second what Ian has just said.
Is there anyway we can contact local Australian mappers to join the
effort? There must be a lot of local inactive mappers out there that
might respond.

Let's give it a few days, and come to terms with the effort we're
facing and the kind of changes required before deciding the response
we need. I'm not convinced that having features drawn in without
local knowledge or survey is the necessarily the best way forward -
especially in areas where we have local contributors and knowledge of
the areas requiring remapping. So many private roads, farm trails,
gates, fences, etc.
However, I'd renew the call for experienced overseas armchair OSMers
to take a look around and help in ways that don't require local
knowledge. Lots of split objects, deformed coastline, waterways and
other ways where nodes have been removed, etc, that anyone who would
like to adopt an area can find easily and fix.

As all probably know we have two large areas where data had to be
removed, Poland and Australia besides a number of smallish hotspots.
I would think it would be a really good idea to set up a HOT tasking
server (no idea about it inner workings and if it makes sense to
do this
all in one, or have two) for the coordination of our largish army of
armchair mappers. Particularly in AUS were we have good quality
imagery
available this would seem to make a lot of sense. Any local takers? Or
should I do it from here?
