That all sounds great.  As I have said, "no mapping task that positively contributes to OSM is too small."  We all make contributions at our own pace, biting off what we are able to chew.

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."  (Slaying the TIGER dragon involves individuals one at a time whacking away the tiger:reviewed=no tag).
