That is very useful information to have **in addition** to a normal changeset comment. Did you trace roads from imagery, or improve the geometry of an existing road and fix the highway= classification as a tile validation step? Did you add houses and schools? Is there anything you added where you aren't confident you interpreted the satellite imagery right, and someone doing validation should pay special attention to? Here is one of mine from a HOT task: "Finish tracing road, add classification to it and some others nearby, trace storage tanks." In fact, while I usually write descriptive changeset comments, I just took a look at my change history and came out thinking I should be (and should have been) even *more* verbose. Maybe it's because lately I have been working more on software code, where you can sometimes see a three-paragraph commit message explaining a 2-line code change... -- Nicolás _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
