  1. The OpenStreetmap information is horribly out of date. It’s sad that the presenters sound so pompous and superior when discussing other ‘lesser’ collaborative projects. The server information is completely wrong, and amusingly the details of the servers are available on the OSM wiki.

  2. Wow, this is a great episode. The commentary about FlaggedRevs is excellent. Thank you Phil Birken! James Forrester is very good too. Overall, really solid.

  3. Brianna, thanks for the compliment! Kyle, hopefully we can get some folks from OpenStreetMap to come on the podcast to talk more about the project sometime.
