I'm not convinced Notes are cleared up any more than Fixmes

They certainly are more visible to me - they're available for a simple overlay on the main map and get announced in IRC channels.

They maybe more visible, but that doesn't mean they get updated or offer more relevant data. If Fixmes had a front end overlay they'd, obviously, be just as noticeable.

IMO, fixmes are better as they're added by people with knowledge of OSM who are actually editing, attached to entities, & offer clearer instructions as to what needs to be fixed. Notes are added by non editors, often inaccurately placed with vague messages like ,can't get down here'. Was there an import from that crappy 'bugs'?

Specific Q lots of these notes in my area are 'Incorrect speed limit. Reported speed limit is 40 mph' from 'anonymous'. Where is it 'reported' from. Is it being compared with another database?
