Hi all,

Have we ever used the tasking tool to co-ordinate efforts on a 
particular area?  I use it at HOT else I wouldn't have a clue what or 
where to help.

I'm surprised it's not more widely used around OSM, unless it is and I 
just haven't stumbled across it yet?

Didn't see this on HOT list yet.
So, FYI, since there are many that don't read the talk list.
BIG thanks to Simon for setting this up! (and pgiraud + others
here/elsewhere for creating the TM, obviously)

I've set up a task manager on http://rebuild.poole.ch/ (it is simply a
further instance of the HOT tasking server) to support and coordinate
what ever remapping efforts can be carried out by arm chair mapping. You
can log in with your existing OSM credentials.

If you want to add jobs send mail to my OSM user account (SimonPoole)
and I'll give you admin status and a show you how to set them up. I
suspect that targeting hotspots and stuff that doesn't require too much
local knowledge would make most sense.
