I think requiring mapping is in fact a poor idea: that impinges on issues of academic freedom. But that protection of the mapper community is key - ensuring that surveys are well formatted, professional, infrequent, and properly targeted. Access to the OSM mapper database is a privilege. -- Reuse of existing surveys should be supported as well.
