btw, more discussion on the groups concept at https://github.com/osmlab/osm-planning/issues/1 Personally, I think that https://github.com/osmlab/osm-community-index has picked up a lot of what "groups" were intended to cover (a system for defining location based ones anyway). I don't think replicating forum type functionality directly in osm.org is valuable. What could be cool is a way to associate your user with communities in the index, and then get filtered views of mapping and user activity, and links to communication channels. On the topic of spending money on development, I don't speak for the Board here, but I don't see why we wouldn't at least entertain any serious proposal put forward (and by that I mean specifics on what would be built, evidence of discussion and by in by community, what kind of resources it would take). This kind of thing may also perfectly fit within microgrants (which we still want to do, but also need the time to finalize). -Mikel * Mikel Maron * +14152835207 @mikel s:mikelmaron

Also, I don't like merging services like maps with social network. Therefore I think that if you run local Diaspora* with OAuth over osm.org it less work and better scalability/sustainability. Ofcourse it's just idea. Have a nice day, jiri On Tue, May 21, 2019 at 01:53:38AM -0300, Дмитрий Киселев wrote: > I suppose there are not so many of us who wants a social network.
