BTW, here's the official blog post announcing this new feature: http://blog.openstreetmap.org/2013/04/29/openstreetmap-opens-up-to-more-contributors-with-easy-add-a-note-feature/
And here's the wiki page explaining the feature: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Notes If you're a map-app developer and you want your users to be able to add their notes to the map, there's an API available: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6#Map_Notes_API If you want to suggest features or report bugs on the Notes feature itself, the official Github repository for the OSM website is the place to go: https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/ On Thu, Apr 25, 2013 at 7:12 AM, Eugene Alvin Villar <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi guys, > > Some of you may know about OpenStreetBugs: > http://openstreetbugs.schokokeks.org/?lat=14.6&lon=121.05&zoom=14 > > It's a 3rd-party website where people can easily submit bug reports on the > map.
