Hi all, an update on the pybossa task developed by Benni at Disaster Mappers (Heidelberg University)... Your feedback was really helpful and Benni has taken it and created a v2 [1 <http://crowdmap.geog.uni-heidelberg.de/app/missing_maps_follow_up/>]. However, he is now at the limit of his coding capability and is looking for collaborators or someone who can finish it off. It's nearly there and he has explained the challenges he couldn't quite meet on the original feedback doc [2 <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rDCCm-kYksWclg8A9jhVlIn2xcTV6Yz5rndrpYjo0dg/edit?usp=sharing> ].
I have written this up in an OSM diary entry, too [3 <http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/pedrito1414/diary/35401>]. If anyone fancies helping out, please let me know and I'll put you in touch with Benni. Cheers all!
