Top Contributors for March 09

Here are the results of the Top People's Map Contributor as it stood on the last day before the new People's Map site was launched.

Many congratulations to Laurence Newman who is the top roads contributor of all time and to Matus who was the top roads contributor in March. I think Mapman also needs a mention is this post since he was on top of the standings for many months and have contributed a great deal to the People's Map data layers to date. He is still top of the all time log for creating Nodes.

Now that we have launched the new site, we look forward to a few new challengers to the top spot in the contributions standings!
