Thank you for dismissing all our arguments in one fell swoop. The difference with reported bugs, is that said bugs did get addressed. If we are anti-anything it's anti-having-to-cleanup-with-no-possibility-to-shut-close-the-source-of-the-cause-of-precious-time-wasters. If people were consciously breaking the data, this would most certainly be called vandalism. If you manage to burn out the regular contributors is OSM, you will have done the whole community a major disservice.
Then there is the suggestion: it must not be a problem, as nobody bothered to create a pull request. We are mappers, not JS programmers and how hard can it really be to create dialogs to interact with your users? No need for external contributions to accomplish that, all that's needed is the willingness to stop annoying the rest of the community. 2015-02-12 0:40 GMT+01:00 Tom MacWright <t...@macwright.org>: > We also aimed to have no bugs and like every software project before us, > have failed to achieve that goal. > > The uproar about iD is the same as the uproar about the map style, > website, user groups, code of conduct, Steve Coast, the board, imports, > license change, attribution, and practically everything else about > OpenStreetMap. It's not anti-iD bias, of course.
