[OSM-talk] "Incorrect speed limit" anonymous notes - who is behind that?

[JB]

I don't necessarily want to analyse once more how the notes are opened, 
closed or not closed and to what aim, nor analyse the end of 
OpenStreetBug life and the quality of the remaining bugs, but in France, 
I have never ever seen anyone comment on someone else's note (or « 
resurvey »). The only comments I have seen were from the note opener, 
when prompted by a potential corrector.

So a note which indicates « probably 90km/h here » or « speed limit is 
not 0km/h » may remain there for years (yes, years), demotivate 
potential note closers, never be closed. I do not think they participate 
to a high quality note db. There are quality assessments tools around 
that allow contributors to detect where speed limits are missing.

JB, with perhaps some bad faith in there, but not that much.
