Hi,
I am currently developing & deploying an application similar to Fix My Street for the Walloon Region. At first, our public are cyclists, but we are thinking and discussing about other street's users (disabled people, piéton/voetgangers, ...) We use the OSM maps... :-) One of the feature I am thinking to develop is to link a report with OSM objects (nodes (benches, bus stops), ways (streets, buildings, etc.)). This application is open source, I use PHP and the Symfony2 framework, with a PostGIS database. But I do not think the application may be useful for mapping... The site is in beta and is available here : http://uello.be . We are currently working with 5 municipalities.
