Diary posts on our progress

[maning]

Per convo at gitter, we will line up a series of OpenStreetMap diaries. Intent is to:

• update the community on the progress of this import,
• share what we built to do execute the import (tools, processes, etc)
• invite the community to participate

Here's a couple of ideas, we can divide them into a series of posts for each of us to work on:

• [ ] Status of the import (stats, events, etc);
• [x] Quality of data we are importing (not just building shapes but also height, year built, building types, etc);
• [x] Tools we built (data conversion, tagging, Tasking Manager customizations, JOSM plugin); @maning
• [x] Working with the community (mapathons, coordination with LA City planning office). @jschleuss

At the end of the posts, lets invite the community to join in the effort and see us present at the SOTM-US next month.

More ideas?

This sounds great to me. I can take the community angle.
