Community Hub

Idea

An interactive, customizable, collectively maintained catalog of all the websites (Maps, QA Tools, ...) built around OSM by the community, that passes the current context (map view, object, user, changeset) when switching.

• before someone else mentions it, here the obligatory "Standards" xkcd on the most likely outcome
• at the core, a collection of URLs with placeholders

Restrictions

• Bookmarklets
  • Bookmarklets are dead
• iframe
  • `X-Frame-Options=sameorigin`
  • Content Security Policy (CSP) directive: "frame-ancestors 'self'"
