There is a lot going on in this topic: primarily, a fairly large, potentially
unknowably large semantic of meanings the author of a fixme tag meant when
created. Let's be careful as we interpret these.
Assumptions by the recipient of that tag should be cautious, lest they wrongly
predict the
But then you're often talking about a HOT mapper who might not have done
any mapping for three years.
I must confess when validating HOT projects if I saw a mapper had done
something glaringly wrong and it was more than a week before noting the
response rate to a changeset message was less

For the Mali example given by John, an Overpass query reports some 1,200 such

John,
I created a bunch of those a few years back, when I was still young(er) and
