Personally I agree with Ian's idea. I would love to see an OSM-US site
like the one in Germany ( http://www.openstreetmap.de/) that would
have city level pages similar to MappingDC. If I remember correctly we
have donated servers re Ian and SteveC has the domain openstreetmap.us
(
http://www.mail-archive.com/talk-us@openstreetmap.org/msg02623.html).
That way we can serve the needs of current members but also have an
engaging centralized place were newbies can go to find resources,
connect with other mappers in their area or, if there are no other
mappers nearby, start the local community themselves.
openstreetmap.us is currently pointed at the donated servers, which Ian
has set up,
but there is no main web page configured right this minute. apache is
there, it works,
but the only web page there is a default "it works" page.
i think it's up to us (the board of OSM US) to jump start such usage.
