[OSM-talk] Find actively browsed undermapped regions and other gaps in OSM

[Darafei Praliaskouski]

Hi Yves,

The usernames are actually clickable - you go to the user's profile
this way. Users spelled in green are the ones mapping mostly in the
area, so they may be living nearby - we expect that it's good whenever
you need to reach out to someone for local knowledge.
