Hi all,
Thinking aloud, would not be possible (actually asking tech people) to have
a tool allwing the following:
- detecting changesets with hotosm hashtags and picking up the username
- comparing the username to a list of HOTOSM contributors and stating if it
is new or not and already validated
IMO, IRC can be used for quick requests and quick help. It's a lot easier
to offer help over a chat channel than over some messaging system that
requires a page refresh in order to get the messages.
Just including a link to here https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.oftc.net/hot

I don't understand this. Why require people to ask and use another link?
Give direct feedback on a tile, that's what's needed. Irc is a time waster.

Hi,
During the last AWG on IRC, we finalized a first draft for the AWG Terms of
Reference.
Please find the document here for comments and suggestions:

I was very grateful when I was contacted and made aware of an issue that I
was unaware of as a beginner and it has helped me to improve my input.
I believe it is necessary to be able to give this kind of constructive

Hi,
I suggested we could try to set a volunteer team that would monitor the
crisis information channels. IMHO this would have two folds:
- monitor the crisis where there is a HOT Activation, in order to alleviate
the burden of the main Activators, eg Pierre and Andrew for Ebola Crisis.
There may

I like the ideas here. Essentially, we're talking about calculating and
recording mappers "reputation", and then incorporating into handling of
validation.
"How did you contribute" http://hdyc.neis-one.org/ is one example of
reputation calculation. It's entirely automated. Your suggesting

Hi,
We have been talking for a long time about testing Trello; actually I use
it ofr internal coordination for the CAR Activation for a couple of months
with Amadou, but I created one Trello board for the AWG action points so
that people interested can pick up a task and we can track what we do an
Hi,
Is there a way to know the time gap between HOT Exports and the OSM
database? When the service had been created in 2012, it was a few minutes,
if I am not wrong. Seems this is more than that now, what could be a
blocker for potential partners.
Sincerely,
Severin

Hi Severin,
Sounds like a nice approach. However the first two steps are unneeded
- we can detect new users when they mark squares as done, not via
changeset hashtags. In my experience newcomers often forget to tag
changesets, so your approach would miss many of them - yet we already
know their us
I would not publish rating of users based on evaluation of their mapping. This
is an information to use to contact them or to see elements to develop in
learning material.
The OSM API lets extract changesets for an user, a specific bbox and time span.
This way, we can catch all the user contri

Hi,
gamification seems to be a hot trend lately. My understanding of this
is a clear communication of (community) goals and closing the feedback
cycle to individual contributors. Counting validated squares may be a
good proxy for a user's efficiency. It may not be the most finegrained,
and le
To all who have, Thank you for contributing to this thread.
Although I had been mapping for several years before I started mapping
with HOT, I found my needs were similar to those described by others. I

Hi,
On the subject of validation.
As someone who now spends most of their mapping time validating, I think
we 'sell' it the wrong way. I only use the validation button in JOSM now
if I think I am going to find something, and generally use the
