I'm glad your getting on well with Potlatch - I agree there have been some great improvements over the last few months. Potlatch 2 looks even better, especially the rendering engine. Mapzen mappers will use a graphical menu to choose objects to input, so using tags will not be necessary. We will keep the graphical presets synced with the current community best practices.

I think Potlatch works well with my skill level and editing style. That said, I haven't tried the offline editors like JOSM because they look a bit complicated. Also, I can see how Potlatch can have that effect on some people. This Mapzen looks slick, especially the turn restriction editor. Will the in-application help cover tagging practices, or will that be deferred to the OSM wiki? If the former, I hope you guys can keep up with the periodic changes.

We are primarily looking for people who have not used OSM tools before to test on. I'll post again to this blog with details about the user testing closer to the time.
