I was directed to this mailing list via the thread.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Short version is that I work for the Danish Cyclists Federation and organize courses in OSM editing around the country. Our activities are however made difficult by the download limit per IP address encountered when using Potlatch2. Almost all networks we encounter are firewall protected or use some other form of NAT. With 10 or 15 newbies sharing one IP, we quickly hit the wall, which resulted in some both annoying and embarrassing situations before we figured out what the problem was. I’m told the best solution would be to lock the limit to user accounts instead of IP-addresses.<br>
