> 1. What first brought your attention to OSM? A magazine article? A > web site interview? SteveC's FLOSS Weekly interview? [Norm Nelson] Hmmm probably did a google search on open source maps. Somewhere I saw an announcement of a mapping party which led me to OSM. > > 2. What made you decide to get involved and join this list? [Norm Nelson] I am a hiker and am interested in trails. I don't want to pay Garmin or anyone hundreds of dollars for trails in US National Parks. Most local trails are only available on the local jurisdiction website so information is scattered. Mass imports have helped but sometimes information is out of date. > > 3. What is the trickiest part about starting with OSM, for you? Can > you suggest how to make this tricky thing less-tricky? [Norm Nelson] For me style sheets and check lists would help. In my case I bookmark the map features page which helps a lot but there are still times when I have no idea how what I do will render.
