List of changeset discussions for a user

  • What's involved: Ruby on Rails
  • Who can you talk to: dev mailing list or EWG
  • What's being done already: see issues 842, 1148 and https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/1642

Despite being a relatively recently added feature of osm.org, many communities have adopted changeset discussions as part of their communications with fellow mappers. There are still some limitations in the user interface offered on osm.org, though: Currently it requires third party websites such as Pascal's to find changeset discussions one participated in. Users can find a list of diary comments on the profile page, but not changeset discussions they've participated in, or comments to OSM notes.

Github has a ticket and patch. Might need some polishing before merge.


This issue comes from the OSM Top Ten Tasks page

I started an API endpoint here but I'm wondering if this top 10 task is referring to just a view on the website, or potentially adding to the API?

Awesome @kamicut - I think the Top 10 is just referring to the view on the website. But it seems like having an API call for this would also be useful too.

I could see us using the API call for #13 - maybe to gather stats like "how many users I've welcomed".
