Hi all,
This new generation of voting members from such different

Happy to be part of that.

Hello Everyone,
Thank you for this nomination . I'm so glad to be part of the new voting
members.
I am senegalese , I live in Dakar and I am currently completing a Master 2 in
Computer Science .
Here is a summary of my story with HOT.
I always encourage opensource during my university studies

Hi Robert,
Yes, if Validation was to be kept, the Invalidation step is essential to avoid
uncontrolled situations were incompleted jobs are validated.
We are discussing about implementing rapidly this version. But one

Hello everyone,
I was very happy to be selected as a HOT volunteer to develop OSM project in
Togo in 2013, I am even more today!
I started with OSM in December 2012 through the HOT deployment in Senegal with
Doury Augustin, also nominated, that's great!
I am currently deployed in Lomé (Togo)
Jaakko, I may be able to help you with a WMS Layer, if you have all the
maps cut and Georeferenced as GeoTiffs.
Please contact me off list to discuss.

I strongly agree. Validation is very useful, just not 100% well implemented in
its current form. "Invalidation" would be an important step, as would tighter
guidance on the validation process. Since it's supposed to be a decision taken
with authority, it makes sense to have the definition of val

Hi all,
as a regular mapper I can really appreciate the validation function. I am
sometimes doing the validation, but without this function it is really hard to
do it: I have no idea which areas were already checked by the others or even by
me, because sometimes I am forgetting exactly which sq
Dear All
As a newbie on HOT, I think that validation has a place. When a responder
looks at a mapped set of areas it is useful to know if the data has been
checked or not. It may influence how the data is utilized and evaluated
especially for those who base operational decisions on the mapped data
Hi All,
On the other side of "for validation" it is a well liked feature for
some of our more traditional partners. (Including those that
originally funded v2 of the tasking manager)
It would be nice not to take features away from the 1st version. I
would suggest we look at ways to encourage vali
Hey Harry!
You read my mind.
Let's try without validation.
I'm pretty sure that the validation feature can be re-added in a near
future. We just need to find a way to have something easy to understand for
the end user. And I am convinced that if it's simple for the end-user it
will not require to
Seems people aren't sure about the idea of removing the validation step, but I
think it's good idea. I'm sure Pierre is suggesting this change having looked
quite carefully at the way people are using the task manager system.
The idea of validation was to allow pro-mappers to coordinate the proc
Carefully managed "imports".
I find OSMLY [0] as potentially a good platform for manual import and
its associated peer review. Right not it doesn't support "import" of
points [2] so that is my wishlist [2].

Hi,
Thanks for your work on this - I like the interface, in particular
the ability to see which squares you have worked on, & to be able to
select them again - particularly helpful if you realise you've been

First of all thank you for putting me as one of voting member of HOT.

Another idea:
Maybe we could dothe process like Kort (OSM gamification
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Kort_Game ) does it. There, several people
must check a certain
thing and after three sucessfull checks it gets accepted into OSM. That would
be like a 2-step
