User emails

[dereklieu]

We should probably send user e-mails up to the API in the authentication/changeset create step. This would give network administrators some way to contact the people who are tied to changes in the data.

Yup, sounds reasonable.
How would we get this? The OSM Api doesn't seem to provide this:

<osm version="0.6" generator="OpenStreetMap server">
  <user id="594282" display_name="olafveerman" account_created="2012-01-26T11:38:59Z">
    <description/>
    <contributor-terms agreed="true" pd="false"/>

      <sent count="0"/>
    </messages>
  </user>
</osm>

Good point. Open to suggestions here.

Not sure if we can get this without specifically asking the user for an email at some point. The moment of signup (authorization OSM oAuth) seems to be the most natural and efficient.
