Dear Nirab, Sushil, Nikesh, Subir Ji and Others, Thanks!
Although the paper resulted from my doctoral work, I wrote it after I returned to Nepal. So your enthusiasm in the creation of open data and communities including OSM has one way or another inspired this paper. In a connected note, if you are traveling in Dashain, you may want to use that travel as an opportunity to map. I am sure you will love to paint your home town/village in OSM. This is one way we could expand OSM mapping from Kathmandu Valley to other parts of the country. Here is how one of our OSM community members mapped her hometown Dolakha when she was there to meet her parents in a weekend. *http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/27.67810/86.07336 <http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/27.67810/86.07336>*. It was empty before that weekend. If you are interested to map but need to develop mapping skills, we will be happy to organize a training session.
