I'd be happy to upload .. are there any tools to help with automated GPX upload? Anyone interested to help?

Current GPX is archived at http://kibera.maps.jsintl.org/traces

Would that involve converting the .osm files to .gpx and uploading?

If so, i dont think the community agrees to upload perfect gpx traces,
the community perfers 'speratic' gpx tracks & point clouds all over
the place.

None of that 'useful' gpx data, please :-)
(it only results in a better map)

kidding aside, i think thats a silly rule. As long as the tracks were
not traced from the Google monster.
What is the 'logical' explaination for not permitting this?
