I have been searching for a "tag" editor. This comes pretty close,
but it can only change node tags. Still a great way of editing.

Sometimes, signalisation is just so good, like here:

Dutch speaking people have to go to the right, French speaking to the left.

Btw, does anyone knows if there is a free database for temporarily geographical data? Like road works. I could really use this in my home town. Because I always forget where they are working, and so, I do a detour.

I think a sign like that will confuse the lorry driver and so he will be stuck :-D

Like the first comment, you could interprete the sign as "only accessible to flying saucers". I love those drawings.

LOL, that's a great one.

I find walkingpapers works better for this than a smartphone noting app.

http://walking-papers.org/

I've done that too, but after a while, you notice you always go to the same shops.

Ok, I guess I'll just leave it that way.

And about the servers: I didn't find anything more recent than 25 august:
osm.wiki/w/index.php?title=Servers/Upgrades&action=history

sorry, I copy pasted too fast, it's the wrong permalink, here's the right one:
http://tools.geofabrik.de/mc/?mt0=mapnik&mt1=googlemap&lon=2.84662&lat=51.15292&zoom=15

Although West-Flanders isn't so well mapped, OSM is more actual than google maps:
http://tools.geofabrik.de/mc/?mt0=mapnik&mt1=googlemap&lon=11.34856&lat=48.14347&zoom=14

Sorry, but your streets will have to be removed, you mustn't use google maps as said above. Once you removed the streets, you can track them with a GPS, the GPS trace is the evidence you were there and you really mapped them yourself.

btw, note that the map is not the main goal of OSM, the map is only to show what data is present in OSM. It can be handy to check if you've done things wrong on (e.g. way not showing because a type error in the word "highway"). But the map is not the main goal.

I think the update did it, it's now present on my iGoogle homepage.

I can view it on google reader, I'll wait a while, maybe it appears later on on the iGoogle homepage.

sorry, that error seems to be something with my browser, I can't open other RSS files too. But still, I don't get new community updates and other RSS feeds on my iGoogle homepage do update.

I know iGoogle is always an hour too late, but the update has been there for more than an hour.

I use the iGoogle homepage, I know this is difficult to investigate. The most recent in the RSS I see is this one: osm.wiki/Community_Updates/2010-10-04

When I want to view the rss file myself, I get a php error:

Potlatch 2 is great, just tried it and it works so fast and accurate.

But I get a problem with the feed: my google homepage doesn't update it and I can't access the RSS XML file manually. Is there a problem?

Welcome to OSM,

I agree on the 'fun' part :P

Happy mapping

If you can use JOSM, you can't call yourself a newbie, :P
