Made it to Honduras today and had some time in the hotel to work on mapping some of my previous GPX tracks. Mapped some highways in Baja California Sur, Mexico as well as a tiny bit of La Paz. The 'simplify way' command in the utilsplugin for JOSM is great. You'll have to change the sensitivity on the Einstein page to get good results, however.

Worked again on mapping Ibiza island.
Although there is still soooooooooooooo much today, progress went pretty well,
i added the central of the second largest city (Sant Antoni).
So things are slowly (as i am the only one mapping a whole island), but getting better and better.....
Did somemore work on Tidal River.
Need to review all the traces I cannot upload and try build the roads in the park. So many lines from last trip hard to work out roads
On a trip to Le Hohwald, Alsace, France, I managed to add some small roads there. Street coverage is quite good, though...
I've been mapping Gdańsk mostly on foot. The progress is slow, but steady.
Generally Kielnieńska - Barniewicka - Biwakowa- Balcerskiego is almost finished. Circa 1.5 km2 in area total.
So,
habe nun Ludwigsfeld Grundlegend online gestellt.
Hoffe das kommt auf der Karte gut raus...
Bin mal gespannt wie lange ich warten muss, bis ich das sehe :-)

The Town Centre is largely complete. Still needed are:
* Footpath beside Sainsbury
* Path to the river.
* Loop of road to scout hut
* Pubs, surgerys and such like
Last weekend I walked around Killiney Hill Park. I brought my new NaviGPS BGT-31 and recorded some traces. I was then able to add the footpaths to the park. This is my first real contribution to OpenStreetMap because no-one had made traces there before and you can't see the paths from the aerial maps.
I think this is pretty much done. No more will be done on this side of town until the autumn. Next stop is Cwmfelin unless someone gets there before me!
Along with a very small part of talbot green. (which was already on the map but no streets before)
To those who aren't familar to ynywsybwl, its a small little town with exceptionally narrow streets, a seemingly frequent bus service, well, you see buses a lot because of the narrow roads and the fact they can't really get thru!
i've started on bits of it, I won't be adding all of it just the bits I drive down sorry!, although i shall try and make several detours to add in as many possible streets, however its no joy but theres a lot more detail than before!
Since I seem to be the only one who's added here, you can rest assured all steets i've added in have the correct speed limits (all the way to pontypridd) and I belive to have correct naming, although its confusing ware some streets start and begin as each street seems to have at least 3 names...
I've also added some more details and footpath's to my home town, i'm hoping if anyone uses these maps as satnav's they default roads without speeds to 48kmph, as i seem to of left a lot, keep meaning to add as much detail but for some reason teh maxspeed tag i always seem to forget.
I hope more add to this project, although its nice realising a bit to you often goto is completly blank and you get to start mapping, its nice to see palces you'd think wouldn't be added and then are in great detail!
I'm in 2 minds to edit the a470 dual carrigeway, just smoothen out he corners and what not, (same with m4 between cardiff and bridgend)
Wer hat eigentlich Osnabrück verbrochen? Glaubt man OSM, besteht Osnabrück fast ausschließlich aus Hauptverkehrsstraßen dritter Ordnung (Tertiary). In Wirklichkeit sind fast alles "Residentials". Im Süden, zwischen Voxtruper und Nahner, habe ich schon eine Menge "umgelabelt", aber da sich meine Ortskenntnis auf diesen kleinen Bereich beschränkt, wäre es toll, wenn sich mal jemand mit Ortskenntnissen um die korrekte Einsortierung bemühen würde. Danke!
SHORT ENGLISH SUMMARY:
Most streets in Osnabrück (Germany) are declared as "tertiary roads" instead of "residential roads". It would be nice if somebody with knowledges of Osnabrück can correct this. Thank you.
Hmm, well, well, this project has been hiding from me till now. I love the idea. Seems very time consuming waste of time, love it. I have no time, so this may help my struggles to meet universal enlightenment by wasting more time than I have and disappering into Nirvana with a loud *pop*. :-)
Hanging out in a hotel in El Salvador and uploading the GPX tracks from my trip so far: Seattle to San Miguel over ~6 months.
Wrote a little batch uploader in Python and gave it a delay of 15 minutes so as not to clog up the upload queue.
Also finally made some changes using JOSM. Added a park and a lake near the house I grew up in and also connected a road that was broken in two for some reason (probably due to the automatically imported TIGER data).
Also added some stop signs and traffic signals. Not sure how you'd mark a stop sign that only affected one lane of traffic (at a T-intersection where only the T's 'handle' has to stop, for example).
Würde gerne mal einen Treff/Workshop machen. Wer hat auch Lust dazu?

Completed significant roads into and in the village.
Outstanding: All footpaths, minor roads, several long dead end roads out into the fens.
I just added in my HUGE track log file.. it's 13,000km long. .. most of which is technically accurate asides from a couple spots where it shows a straight line from town to town. I'm working on editing them all so that each GPS Track Up upload will be for a different route. (hopefully it'll be accepted)
Here's the routes that will be shown (I already have them on the computer, just need to upload)
Trans Canada Highway Route (Cycling on the TC Highway shoulder all the way)
Paved Alternate to the Trans Canada Trail (Although some of the Trans Canada Trail IS paved, this route shows the way across following paved routes)
The Gravel Trail across Canada, mainly along the Trans Canada Trail, follows the paved roads where no gravel exists
The Dirt Trail across Canada, mainly mountain biking and Hiking, and follows the gravel trails and paved roads where no dirt trail exists.
Right now, it's best that I work on the trail edits myself, (on Garmin Map Source) and upload it to here. However, if there are others who want to work on this trail also, please contact me so then i know to be collaborating.
I also have all the points along the way, where are organized in the form on POI files, so then when i update the full down loadable map, everything will be there.
Thanks :)

Inspired by seeing my changes to East Hagbourne appear on the main map, I have been out tonight and finished off nearly all footpaths in the village, there is one bridleway to map, but at this time of year it is a little damp and muddy to cycle, so I will wait until it is drier.
Upton the village to the south is not complete, in fact it is more detailed than other maps I have seen that are available on line.
I will start moving north soon and begin on the south of Didcot.
Added a number of new streets in Keflavik, Iceland. Also added to the route to Keilir, and couple of streets in Reykjavik.
