Are the any sources available for map data to enter? Yahoo lowres is not really helpful there and landsat just gives me timeouts (and probably wouldn't help either).

I love the internet - I didn't even know Albania had a problem. All that has been on the news of late is haiti - maybe cynical but it seems that what gets in the newspapers is only what is likely to be of most interest to people and hence what is going to help sell more copies!!

I've added the place template to the page; noticed that the map displays a different "default" name.
Could you add some information on what type of information is needed to help?
And if you could give a hint how to use the sat images in JOSM, that would help as well. I have some doubts about the copyright in some of those images, BTW.
