#Google is trying again to convince you, YES YOU, to contribute for free to Google Maps.

Please don't.

It is 100% #proprietary, Google has full control over the data you added and people can only access Google Maps over proprietary channels where Google dictates the rules. This gives them too much power.

Contribute to #OpenStreetMap instead, it's a project by the community, for the community.

I already did. There is an app that lets you easily edit the map, really handy. I also use organic maps for most of the time.
