Wendy Brawer and Green Maps are a long time community, participatory mapping 
network, spanning the globe. A core influence for me and several others in 
OpenStreetMap.

Green Maps have traditionally been paper based. OpenGreenMap is their intended 
foray into online maps. The base maps themselves could likely be OSM, with a 
potential information flow from the annotations back into OSM. The annotations 
themselves will be licensed in an open way.
