Hi List, I spotted this on blogs.openstreetmap.org today and though it was worth a share on this mailing list. The diary post below covers one users reflection on a recent competition [1] run by Telenav / Scout in the US. Users were encourage to edit the map to earn points, with the highest scoring user receiving a prize. The exact algorithm for how edits were converted into points was keep secret.

Nevertheless Telenav / Scout have a new competition - check it our at: http://www.scout.me/osm Regards, Rob [1] http://stevecoast.com/2014/02/11/telenav-giving-away-ipad-mini-or-galaxy-note-to-editor-with-the-most-edits-made-by-march-10/
