[OSM-talk] mapping house numbers

[Martijn van Exel]

An app like that could never be completely simple and at the same time
provide 100% correct and complete nodes. The way I see it is you add the
addresses, the app stores them locally, exports them as .osm so you can load
them into JOSM and refine / shift them and upload.
