I second this - OpenStreetBugs has become a very important reporting
tool that Aunt Tilly who has very good local knowledge can report
bugs/inconsistencys/missing features to the mappers.
I think its worth beeing included on the main page - Probably it would
be a good idea to make it more open, put the code into svn, make the
database schemas visible so that we do not depend on a single person.
