This is greatly appreciated.
Having spent the last weeks identifying areas who need better, or any,
imagery at all I notice that Iceland is not included in this layer (uses
existing BING imagery).
Is Iceland an area that DG process imagery for or is it, for example,
out of range at 64°N up towards 66°N and does not qualify as Western
Europe in this definition?
Another area I've worked on is Botswana, which is generally good but has
weak spots as well, not noticing any difference there either.
Again, many thanks for any additional imagery.

Effective immediately the Mapbox Satellite option in iD and JOSM is
100% open for tracing in OpenStreetMap, including all our high
resolution DigitalGlobe imagery. This is full coverage down to zoom
level 19 imagery in the US + Western Europe and world wide to zoom
level 17.
To use this imagery select "Mapbox Satellite" from the imagery menu in
iD on the web or in JOSM. Mapbox Satellite is open for tracing in
OpenStreetMap in general and not tied to a specific editor, so if you
would like to add Mapbox Satellite to another OpenStreetMap editor you
are welcome to do so.
Big props to Kevin Bullock (cc'ed) and our friends at DigitalGlobe -
it's fantastic working with good people who see wins of working with
OpenStreetMap.
Alex
PS - on an existing installation of JOSM you'll have to refresh your
imagery menu like so: http://cl.ly/image/383O2L0t431s
