We have a number of reports here that people took a look, saw that 
there's nothing interesting for them to map as there's so much stuff 
there (even if half of the import isn't accurate) and so they didn't 
even try to contribute. Others tried and gave up as correcting botched 
imports is no fun, drawing on an empty space is much nicer and gives you 
more satisfaction.
