I volunteer to test the usability of a restricted iD interface, and to add my
two cents to what would have worked for me when I started mapping.
A "New to mapping? Click here!" button on the front page of the OSM site taking
new mappers to "How to get started" page would be an excellent additio
Hi althio, Hi Suzan,
Since I was on holidays for the last 2 weeks my considerations where
mostly theoretical.
I ruled out JOSM because users have to download and configure settings.

which was one of the major ideas behind the OSMLoggingRoads project.
As althio pointed out, iD does expose custom presets and custom imagery in
a really clean, easy way. It's pretty well documented (here
Hi John, I'd say this is kind of what Missing Maps is...
The only slight difference is that a lot of the places we are mapping are
