Re: [OSM-talk] Can Mapzen POI collected get some love?

[David Chiles]

Hey everyone

I was going to post this to the mailing list in a few days (once the update
is released). I've made the app
POI+which is s simple node
uploader for the iPhone. The current version has a
bug that causes it to crash when viewing a node. An update has already been
submitted to Apple and should be approved and released in the next few days.

So hold off until the update when it'll have a bunch of optional tags and
more to come
