What do you think of this suggestion folks ?

I haven't taken the time to see whether this use of the database to forward help requests is mentioned anywhere on OSM wiki.

Tag specialists : please say what should be used (I am too tired to check what other groups, ushahidi, sahana, etc are using)

Always getting more and more amazed by OSM.

Entered the request message in OSM with ad-hoc tags.

AT LEAST IT CAN BE SEEN EASILY FROM THE MAIN OSM MAP

(just click Data in the upper right menu, to get all the tags).

Please everyone consider forwarding this very simple and straightforward pipeline to your contacts that could be interested.

I also entered the message from the Milot Hospital, and both could immediately be seen on OSM/Data.

Sorry if there are better ways that I don't know, I am admittedly focused on OSM (and also an OSM newbie), but this looks so simple, and it just works now !

(So I had to shout, which I never never do.)

(Of course, tags specialist can improve the tags used later, but I think anyone can understand what already appears)

Best regards,

Jean-Guilhem Cailton

   Greetings all. I have been in working with an ESRI contact who is
   supporting the relief efforts in Haiti. He has been contacted by a
   hospital administrator in Haiti who is trying to get the message out
   to aid agencies that his hospital is up and running, but needs more
   supplies.

   I was hoping you could forward this to any appropriate contacts.
