In the interest of expanding everyone's horizons... :)
I'm wondering if the tasking manager is able to provide some kind of feed. The
SBTF is getting ready to use PyBossa
(http://blog.okfn.org/category/okf-projects/pybossa/) as a microtasking
manager. I was thinking that we could provide a list of volunteer
opportunities. The SBTF has a lot of downtime where we lose engagement with
volunteers. This would expand their understanding and provide needed work.
We could just point people to the OSM TaskMgr, but this raises a larger point.
We might be able to generate much greater interest and capacity by unifying the
experience a bit.
Cross pollination of volunteers is a great thing, as their enthusiasm will
spread outward.
What's the landscape?
