[Talk-us] Maximum number of tasks on US tasker

[Paul Johnson]

MapRoulette really made a massive mess of the lanes situation that a more
systematic and big-picture effort is starting to get a handle on in
Oklahoma.  I think MapRoulette works well for smaller-picture stuff, and is
more complimentary to StreetComplete and not terribly great at directing
more complicated projects.

I've restarted my efforts at a county level to avoid having a huge number
of tasks that fall largely in Texas, since it seems that the tasking
manager is ultimately only capable of dealing with rectangular project
areas even if you feed it a more complicated polygon via JSON.
