Hi Jeff and all I heard that the SteveC considered an address is high priority for making OSM more usable from Dan Cooke, who is a keynote in ACM GeoCrowd. http://www.geocrowd.eu/workshop_2012/
Coincidentally, Taiwan OSM community is running a map contest on how many addresses mappers make after SotM this year in Japan. This is because a T-shit received from OSM Japan after SotM. In order to send this T-shit to Taiwan mappers, we started the map contest. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Taiwan/2012_Competition Few people registered this contest, but many TW mappers are attracted to make address on the map. I would not say that this contest is successful. At least, we encouraged more Taiwanese mappers to give address data.
