+1 to all of those (does the plugin make ICHC update any faster?) there was an idea just to have some big textbox on the page saying "tell us what's wrong with what you see" that enters an OSB ticket for the region you're looking at. (preferably filtering-out entries telling you that the world looks incomplete) the 'drag problem-marker' idea sounds even better, since javascript is likely to be available for anyone using the slippy-map. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
