Particularly, OSMCha was adopted by Mapbox because it was both useful to the data work there and for the broader community. Maybe there's a play here for Grab and the incompleteness map and quality metrics? We could talk at SotM US about strategies.</span><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"></div></blockquote></div><br><div>You can only build strategy around things you have some level of control over. Which you don't when you leave important OSM tools to be funded by individual companies. In fact, you give a good example. OSMCha was adopted but then unceremoniously abandoned by Mapbox. Now it's in good hands being an OSM US Charter project. I went the same route with MapRoulette. This is a structure OSMF could have built, but I for one am glad the opportunity exists for important OSM tools such as OSMCha and MapRoulette to have a place where they can plan and build for the long term.</div><div>Martijn</div></body></html>
