[OSM-talk] Joint statement from Quincy Morgan and the OpenStreetMap Foundation’s Board, regarding iD development

[Ewen Hill]

Can I personally thank Quincy for his superb work in the ID space - along
with everyone else who has contributed or made suggestions. This has been a
significant revolution for OSM takeup due to the enhanced user experience
and this cannot be underestimated.
