Bryce,
I've found a couple of these. One was exactly where the node was placed.
The other, in Omaha, was a substantial ways away. And I still have found
any of the four at the University of Washington in Seattle. I'm concerned
that the locations are not accurate enough to have a bot add a node. I'll
be on campus next week. If it isn't raining, I'll look again. Now that I've
seen a couple of the repair stations maybe I can spot these.

We are also in conversation with a state wide cycling group to do an OSM
presentation in 2016. I can certainly bring it up then.

If the mechanical edit only touches existing nodes, then I think you should
proceed.

Clifford
