[OSM-talk] Is there some existing detailed tutorial directed at complete newbies? Describing how to add various features?

[Rory McCann]

Isn't this the job of the editing software (incl it's presets)? If there's a search box and the user can type in (eg) "path" and draw the path, then that's how you teach newbies? 

Has this user tried to use iD (the best new user friendly editor today) to do this? Does that do the job? If not, I'm sure everyone, incl id devs, would like to know. 🙂
