Trackability isn't the main goal for PotW, but is a point of interest for Project of the Month. The first PotM is in progress now. We'll have graphs showing contributions. For example: http://weait.com/osmwaterpt-month.png http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Project_of_the_week/2010/Sep_29 The current Project of the Week (Use Potlatch2 and give feedback) has ancedotal indications of success; The Potlatch2 developers say they are getting more feedback. \o/ Yay! http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Project_of_the_week/2010/Oct_13 I think I'm pretty stern on judging the success of PotW and PotM. For improvement, I'd like to see more participation on all levels; - I'd like to see more folks submitting complete projects ready for publishing. - I'd like to see more folks adding PotW/M to their regular editing. - I'd like to see more discussion and suggestions on the proposals page. But I know that I can't always have everything that I'd like. ;-) Things I like about PotW/M: - I think it is fantastic that some PotW/M get translated into other languages. - It's great that suggestions from the community lead to Project of the Month. And it's nice that you are asking. Thanks. :-) _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
