I think the barrier for entry for OSM is already too high, just signing up probably deters a lot of useful committers already who'd otherwise have made small and useful changes (see e.g. how many useful one-off edits Wikipedia gets). Making new users undergo some sort of test they'd have to study for would mean even fewer users contributing. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
