Oh, that.
Jokes aside, I think the ideal use of aerial imagery in OSM is support
for mappers on the ground. I.e. it is great to have aerial imagery where
we *also* have local mappers in the area.
Aerial imagery as raw material for armchair mappers in Europe who enjoy
tracing faraway countries is of lesser priority. I know from my own
experience that such armchair mapping can be a lot of fun, and we have
seen in Haiti that it can also be helpful, but I think this is not the
main mode of operation we're striving for.
