I'm not that fussed... The statistics mean little to me, but I was answering 
the original post.
Some people that have got data from many people just pointed it out when 
they were congratulated for getting a million points.  I admire the people 
that have done a lot of work in all areas, and I would like to no 
complimentry things such as a star mean something, otherwise whats the 
point.

>Who cares? If I could fiddle my GPS to take a million readings every
millisecond,

Never heard of a gps that goes over 1 a second.  But 1 a second is more than 
enough.

>Please don't get hung up on them

I'm not, I was answering the original post

>they are only trivially interesting,

Opinions arn't fact, although I would agree.

>and it's not worth worrying about who has who
>else helping them or nonsense like that.

No, but if there there at all they may as well be acurate.  I aim for either 
doing something propelly or not doing it at all.

Just in relation to the other posts on this topic where people say 
interesting motivations, I'd say mine is seeing renders, and fluidity rather 
than deadends.   Also finding faults with os maps is very satisfying.
