Hi all, Consider the following application scheme: * a twitter user sends a geo-located tweet containing a specified hashtag, say #addosm and key-value pairs like "amenity:pub;name:Red Devil;smoking:yes" * a twitter scraper picks up the tweet, archives it and posts a new point using the twitter coordinate and the decoded k-v pairs, plus an additional tag source:twitter[@twitteruser] or something like that. This would be an easy way to add POIs on the go, and could be an interface for mobile applications to post new POIs. This would not be totally anonymous but it's close. What do you think, is this acceptable? A similar level of anonymity is reached by WheelMap.org that allows anonymous OSM edits through their web site via the OSM account wheelmap_visitor[2].
