I think this error-reporting you're working on is gorgeous and will become a milestone in the evolution of OSM. As you compared it to trac I'd like annotate a few ideas for it's further development. Like in trac different categories of error would be nice: - Wrong/No name (ideally referring to the object's ID) - Wrong position/location (dito) - Wrong direction for oneway (dito) - Missing feature (just referring to coordinates)* - [?] - other Depending on such a classification the mapper knows what needs to be done to confirm/correct the error. Mispellings could probably be solved by couch-potatoes, wrong directions must be checked on-site and missing features or wrong locations require a GPSr. regards, Sven * Maybe offering a dropdown with all possible features to avoid reports like "you missed my marvellous tulip bed" :-) _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
