Another suggestion would be to have some system in place that replies to
notes can get back to the original submitter from the OSM community.  I
don't recall encountering these notes myself, but the inability to close
the communications loop is a big factor in what made Mapdust
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/MapDust> a nearly unmitigated failure
(the biggest mitigating factor is that you can see a snippet to see what
the routing engine was thinking, where the user was traveling and a
category, so there was the possibility of getting some high quality
feedback for surprisingly minimal effort from real people using it instead
of map nerds).
