Holy shit. This is awesome. 70,000 connectivity errors. In how much time? 
Something like three months?

 Hi all,
 
 We've seen some great progress from MapRoulette users fixing the
 almost 70,000 connectivity errors in the US. Returning from my
 Christmas break, they were all but eliminated! Great, but we did not
 really have the next challenge ready yet. So for now, we expanded the
 scope of the connectivity challenge to include Mexico and Canada, so
 we have over 57,000 fresh connectivity errors for you to sink your
 teeth into. So stop reading and start fixing, over at
 http://maproulette.org/!
 
 PS the next challenge is almost done, we could also do a parallel
 MapRoulette for that, what do you think?

2013-01-10 Thread the Old Topo Depot
Some folks were looking at connectivity errors systematicallyfrom early
July, and things accelerated substantively when Martijn released an MR
challenge.

It's likely that nearly 100K connectivity errors were cleared last year
within the US  (remember those horrible county boundaries ;-))
