Dear OSM Community,

I intend to upload building outlines and relating tags for the inner islands of 
the Seychelles, contributed by the Centre for GIS and the National Bureau of 
Statistics of the Seychelles under the ODbL.
I followed the Import Guidelines, added an entry to the Import Catalogue and 
created a relating wiki page:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Seychelles_Building_Import 
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Seychelles_Building_Import>

Please note that there is basically no OSM community yet in the Seychelles but 
we (friends, colleagues and myself) are trying to establish one. We have a 
one-week mapathon event with secondary school teachers and students from August 
27 to September 1 which is our first major attempt to make OSM known to a wider 
range of people here in the Seychelles. Having the building outlines I intend 
to import available in OSM would facilitate our mapathon a lot and the data 
collection teams could focus on collecting building details (and other 
features) rather than tracing building outlines. 

I have created a dedicated user account that will be used only for the import.

I would be happy to receive any feedback from your side.

Many thanks,

Michael
