Yes, if you ask me, changeset comments are (and will stay) the #1 place to 
discuss mapping issues. If a mapper continues to do questionable edits, the 
public channels like this mailing list are a good place to go to. 

To look at recent changeset comments, I use Pascal Neis’s tool. If you haven’t 
seen that yet you should definitely check it out: 
http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussions?c=Canada#5/48.805/-99.802 
<http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussions?c=Canada#5/48.805/-99.802> 

So like I said in my other response just now, GitHub issues are secondary to 
that, more like a convenient way for us to track and for  mappers to see what 
projects we are proposing and working on, and if you happen to have a Github 
account you can also comment. 

Sorry that was not more clear from the outset.
