I think people will participate because they will get a warm fuzzy feeling from 
being able to point at Google Maps and say "I did that". True, you can get a 
warm fuzzy from pointing at OSM and saying "I did that", but Google Maps has a 
much higher profile in the non-geo* community than OSM does.

Personally, I'm going to continue doing my thing in OSM and fix things in 
Google Maps, too, because who doesn't like warm fuzzies?
