If some people want a deeper dive into Tasking Manager, here are a few pointers to the GitHub repository for improvements and bug tracking system.

There have been times when I added a few features and then validated, other times I start adding and realize that quite a bit had been missed and then I'm kind of stuck and just finish it off. Hopefully I'm not leaving a similar trail for others to clean up. A suggestion for the HOT Tasking Manager Stats page would be to add the number of tiles an individual mapper Validates. As John says "we have a lot of tiles to map".
