Subject: [OSM-talk] Notable website/other updates being discussed<br>To: <a href="mailto:talk@openstreetmap.org">talk@openstreetmap.org</a><br><br><br>I'm trying something new to get more visibility to upcoming potential<br>
website changes, as well as recent website changes. I probably won't include<br>
the introductory material each time, but it's worth explaining what I'm<br>
doing the first time. The purpose is both to get a wider audience for the<br>
discussion of changes and to inform people what's going on.<br>
<br>
I'm thinking I'll produce these every other week or so, depending on the<br>
pace of development, my free time, and what kind of response I get.<br>
<br>
My criteria for inclusion are<br>
<br>
- User facing: I won't generally include changes that aren't visible on<br>
<a href="http://osm.org" target="_blank">osm.org</a><br>
<br>
- Changes in functionality: I won't count changes that are purely bug fixes<br>
or changes that aren't apparent to the user<br>
<br>
- Noticeable: There are lots of minor changes to the website to fix minor<br>
issues. Many of these are immediately merged.<br>
<br>
- Would benefit from comments: I only include changes that stand a<br>
reasonable chance of being merged in the near future, or changes that would<br>
benefit from a wider audience<br>
<br>
Feedback on these criteria is welcome, but I have no intention of posting<br>
every little website change to the list. If you want that, follow the issue<br>
trackers.<br>
<br>
Most changes are in the openstreetmap-website project at<br>
<a href="https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website" target="_blank">https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website</a> although I will<br>
include other projects if I'm aware of interesting changes.<br>
