[Talk-us-massachusetts] Amazon Driveways

[Wayne Emerson, Jr.]

I checked some of the new driveways in my area and found 3 different 
Amazon editors: shushmit, ganarend, & naaitha. They do 1 change per 
changeset; they map all over the US; they seem to fix any and all kinds 
of inaccuracies, not just add driveways. The only weird thing I noticed 
is that even with the edits they did today most are still using iD 
v2.12.2 which was replaced on Jan 23 2019.
