Hi,

   I looked ad my personal "nearby users" list today for the first time
in a while and found only 2 people with edits in the last year, 16
people with no edits whatsoever, and the rest between "over one year
ago" and "over five years ago". I know that OSM is vibrant in my corner
of the woods but the "nearby users" list seems to disagree.

We could simply not list those people who have zero edits. Or we could
sort the list differently - but how? Currently it is sorted by distance;
should it be sorted by how long ago someone did their last edit? Or by
how prolific someone is? Or a combination of the two? Or a combination
of proximity+currency+productivity?

Or maybe before we doctor with these details - perhaps we should first
determine what's the purpose of the list in the first place, and from
there then think about how to serve that purpose best?

Bye
Frederik

PS: Don't say, "make it configurable" ;)
