Hi Andy!

Thank you for raising these issues.

We agree about how to investigate ground truth for edits. Only would like
to mention that in case with broken turn restrictions they’re invalid due
to missing role mostly, and in some cases there’s no need in them anymore
(because of adding oneway road for example) and we don’t broke anything by
deleting restrictions which not working. But we heard you and won’t delete
if we are not 1000 % sure.

About our not in time replies, sorry for that, it seems like it is just an
issue of one person and we will work with a team and create better ways of
controlling this issue. But generally our folks answer during the working
day or in the next one (because we have different time zones). Exceptions
can be if someone is on a sick leave or vacation.

Also our team is doing all their best to improve data quality and resolving
more than a thousand fixes per week now, so it’s possible to have some
issues due to human factors. Despite the fact that we map according to our
working tasks, we are still humans who can make mistakes but are always
learning from them.

And moreover, we are always staying respectful to any coming comments and
feedback and awaiting the same way of communication from communities.

Here is a link
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KR7Jwhw7GyDL4AKxOykSK5S8UUafuwLxz7DRerp8NnA/edit#gid=0>
with response statistics of the team that participate in discussed
projects. Here you can see that we answer the comments stable and as fast
as possible.

The team is already working on developing metrics that will allow us to
track comments on our changesets. It also will help to respond on time and
show some statistics to community if necessary.


Best Regards, Sonya
