NACK to any promotion on the front page of osm.org. SOTM (international) ist the only thing that can be tolerated. Full stop. People refused to put the SOTM-EU logo there and I see the point (for anybody outside Europe). There are so many events over the year in different parts of the world (see the Wiki Main Page), it makes no sense to promote them on the front page. To everybody. It makes no sense that I (located in Vienna, Austria) am seeing an ad for an event in SF, CA. Or Toronto, Canada. Or Cape Town, South Africa. Or whatever. Nobody will pay me to get there. There could be an "Events" menu item on the front page of osm.org that links to some Current events page. This would make much sense. Even more since the "Community" menu item is dead (don't know what it should link to). /al _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
