See, that's the difference between the "data is more important" and the 
"community is more important" view. I think that the people count more 
than the data they contribute, and if their attitude towards the 
community is "I have better things to do than explain my mapping to you 
geeks", then I'd rather not have their data.

Of course not everybody who doesn't use changeset comments is arrogant 
and selfish - to be arrogant and selfish you must first know that 
comments are important for the community and *then* ignore that wish, 
and until now, it seems, not everybody knows that.

Bye
