I'm trying something new to get more visibility to upcoming potential website changes, as well as recent website changes. I won't include the introductory material next time, but it's worth explaining what I'm doing this time. The purpose is both to get a wider audience for the discussion of changes and to inform people what's going on.
For more information about this message and the criteria, see the github repo https://github.com/osmlab/openstreetmap-upcoming-features My criteria for inclusion are * User facing: I won't generally include changes that aren't visible on osm.org * Changes in functionality: I won't count changes that are purely bug fixes or changes that aren't apparent to the user * Noticeable: There are lots of minor changes to the website to fix minor issues. Many of these are immediately merged. * Would benefit from comments: I only include changes that stand a reasonable chance of being merged in the near future, or changes that would benefit from a wider audience Feedback on these criteria is welcome, but I have no intention of posting every little website change to the list. If you want that, follow the issue trackers. Most changes are in the openstreetmap-website project at https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website although I will include other projects if I'm aware of interesting changes. == Changes == If you have comments on these changes, the best place is on the appropriate github page for the change, which I try to link. === Make iD default editor === https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/453 Makes iD the editor that opens up by default when users click Edit === Convert user navigation to a dropdown menu === https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/447 Turns the links in the top-right into a drop-down menu.
