This is an even better idea to have all this automated. I was exactly 
thinking this yesterday to put a tag in the relation stating the status 
of the progress and/or maybe even some kind of a quality value?

In a new version it would maybe great to have some more information. As 
I see this is a list just out of the relation. Is it possible to get 
some information in the list out of the ways, too? Like fixme, source etc?

This would be a great tool for finding and fixing problems. The 
solutions given for quality assurance are not as good. Because there are 
millions of "possible" errors shown and I feel everytime like knocked 
out when looking at it and don't really feel like going on and fixing 
this things. I really think it is not helpful to have errors like 
"maxspeed=35 seems an unusual value" shown - what the heck?! The road 
sign states it like this...
I think it is more helpful to know from the human user who exactly knows 
my GPS track was crappy it really would be a good idea to resurvey this...

Great idea and maybe we can somehow combine all this and I really like 
the idea of the possibility to access the data directly. Maybe you can 
implement some kind of an search tool that let's me directly search in 
the data. Or at least choose the ways in a special area. Would be great. 
I forgot a lot on PHP programming in the last years -  maybe I should 
start again...
