Potlatch 2
Potlatch 2 used to be the default editor before iD took the relay. While
usage is declining, it’s still used by 2500 (1.4%) users who did 10 million
(1.2%) changes in 2020.
Potlatch is built in Flash, which browsers will retire by the end of the
year. Richard wants to adapt Potlatch 2 to the AIR platform so users who
still rely on it can continue to use it.
The full proposal is at

Sorry if this sounds harsh, but I think using any funds at all to continue
support for a tool that 1% of editors use would be wasteful. Flash is, for
all intents and purposes, a dead technology. This money is better spent on
other uses.
