I've said this before I believe. I send updates through only when I feel that I have enough to substantially change the current map, so its no longer instant. This is too keep errors from occurring, and giving me plenty of time to fix the small ones that slip by. I also have a requirement of a folder of tiles must have X number of tiles that currently exist on the map (I believe I have it set to like 50). So alot of the small folders due tend to get ignored. Best bet to make sure and area you want to be added gets added is to explore a large sections of your area.

I did uploads of my area (and areas i've been to) regularly and those did show after some time...

I don't think that it is easy (possible) to maintain such a world map and having it steady at a near actual state...so i see it just as a very welcomed navigation help...
