What about this: I've noticed, at least in NY, that some of the
counties are excellent, and some are much less so. What about creating
a persistent tiling of the US which starts with county borders, and
splits the county up into sections which are managable in a half-hour's
time (say). The editor visits a site which accesses the JOSM remote
control protocol. They fix up the TIGER date and indicate "Yes, I'm
done" or "Needs more work", and after a couple of Yes votes, it gets
taken out of rotation.
As a "stetch goal", it could only give you tiles close to your home,
or allow you to specify a region of interest and only give you tiles
within that region.
Is anybody interested in using such a service?
