There is small (10-15 meters) offset for bing imagery for task: http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/1204 This based on publicly available GPS traces and Strava overlay. Should we drag the imagery? Bing is fairly consistent (with offsets) and advanced mappers can move many data in one go. I fear that if I shift it after very task, it can cause more problems.
