[talk-au] Active Australian OSM contributors in light of CT/license changes
Matt wrote But the problem is I've become disillusioned - the fun and community has gone. Matt, Once the licence change is complete I think the community will slowly grow back, both with some old timers and then with new mappers as well. Till then we will continue to see the same old disrupters trying to destroy OSM. Cheers Nick ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

Sorry for the way he is treating you Liz. Liz is like the grandma of osm. She has been a tireless supporter, She spent months helping in OSM kosovo and flossk. She dontated laptops, gps devices and lots of love. I dont know if you follow that at all steve, but I am shocked how you are speaking to her. Steve, please be a little more respectful of your elders, thanks, mike On Fri, Jul 8, 2011 at 11:48 PM, Steve Coast st...@asklater.com wrote: On 7/8/2011 2:01 PM, Elizabeth Dodd wrote: On Fri, 08 Jul 2011 11:05:28 -0700 Steve Coastst...@asklater.com wrote: If you go look at talk@ you'll find a lot of history from the people who now inhabit this list.

I have not been kicked, banned or moderated, not on any list in my life. Don't you ever say Hello? Am I missing out on something here? Why am I discriminated against? Are such questions on your mind often? I can confirm that other mappers have received emails telling them that their views are well known, and don't require repeating. Likewise I can confirm that All Blokes is not a pseudonym of John Smith. I see. And to return to the topic I'm hardly mapping anything now - since the big argument blew up I have little interest and decided to do some other things.

Me too. Previous efforts were more successful (no error messages), but I've never seen a map, just a blank grey box where a map probably goes. It has had some outages. Two things: 1) fosm.org was unavailable for 12 hours today. I think it went down just as I stepped onto a plane, so I was unaware and unable to do anything about it until back on terra firma. 2) It's clear that some people cannot access fosm.org even when it is up. I think this is because some browsers don't support xslt. More information would be helpful. I will switch to server-side xslt if that is indeed the cause. 3) (ok, three things), there is no map hosted as fosm.org at the moment, there are people working on rendering (such as bigtincan) and I'm happy to encourage such diversity as it makes the project stronger. I'm trying to keep the core of fosm small and tight. I don't want to create features like user dairies else I'd be accused of forking the community. We all have the same goals, some people just want to license them differently. The default layer on http://maps.bigtincan.com/ is rendering from fosm data. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

So we would like a little code change and remove the 'map' link at the top, with some text info to sharedmap.org and bigtincan It will reduce some confusion.
