Hi again, A quick MapRoulette update to announce that the new MapRoulette has now officially replaced the old version. So if you go to http://maproulette.org/ you will see the latest version.
We added some more features and fixed some bugs over the last week as well: * MapRoulette is now (almost) fully translatable. You can take a look at the base English strings file[1] and commit a version for your language. This is a new feature and not yet documented well, so if you're interested in doing this, contact me. * Challenges can now set their own preferences for base map layer (you can set a custom tile layer as well), default zoom level and allowed zoom levels. You can update your existing challenges with this information as well. * Each user now has a profile, where you can set some personal settings and preferences: your preferred editor, default base map layer (or custom tile URL), your locale / language and a UI color preference. No new challenges to report, but I hope some new ideas will pop up soon! If you do not know how to create a new Challenge, please see the tutorial (or ask me for help).
