bug reporting
There's a bug reporting mode. Not clear if these are feeding back to OSM somehow.
The Navmii website describes this feature as "Integrated Map Report Tool: Easily send map errors from within Navfree to enable of the OpenStreetMap community to fix & improve the map!"
The Navfree user forum has a question regarding this, which features a reply from a Navmii employee stating "Presently it is true that the feedback reports from Navmii end up in an inaccessable database... But its not a black hole - The contents of the database have been handed over to OSM" but there are no details of this process.
