Not quite sure what Werner wanted to convey with the info about the shape and numbers of the long tail of OSM (perhaps nothing more than the numbers).<br>
<br>
Anyways, I'd just want to say that the "tiny" 0.1% of the data might well be a huge number of otherwise missing POIs, place or road names or other map features' details, tiny corrections to roads, etc.<br>
<br>
It's also likely a thing that has made 100+k people love OSM just a bit more.<br>
<br>
Suddenly 0.1% isn't that small anymore.<br>
<br>

I think the quotet 220000 are those mappers that still "own" an active<br>
osm object. (last editor).<br>

<br>
statistic based only on the last editors.<br>
about 25000 Users only own a single node.<br>
<br>
90% of all ways and nodes are last edited by about 7000 users.<br>
99% by about 30000 users.<br>
--> 9% of data, 23000 users<br>
99.9% 80000 Users<br>
--> 0.9% of data, 50000 users<br>
and the rest:<br>
--> 0.1% of data, 140000 users<br>
<br>
