Have a look at Google MapMaker. We don't have to dumb down; we can offer both and give people the choice. Bear in mind that Potlatch was never originally meant to be an editor specially for beginners; it was meant to be something for _quick_ editing. The reasons I first wrote it were that (a) JOSM wouldn't work on my machine (OS X 10.3, so no Java 1.5), and (b) when I did use ye anciente JOSM, I thought "what the hell is this create node/create segment/create way shit? I want something that works like Illustrator". So I don't want to dumb Potlatch down, either. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/OSM-on-The-Reg-tp21951170p21953996.html Sent from the OpenStreetMap - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
