I've gone through some of the concerns raised and and not addressed on 
the wiki

- Paid staff
   The question was raised on if paid staff would be used for this. The 
wiki says no money is being exchanged for work - does this mean that all 
work will be done by volunteers?

- Remote mappers
   Will many remote mappers be involved, particularly paid ones?

- Updating the explicit permission to be clearer on "credited"
   The old permission is from 2008 and we've seen problems since then 
with vague attribution requirements

- Will TM validation be used?
