Re: [OSM-talk] OSM tutorials for waypoints.ph guys
Hi, The meeting we had with waypoints.ph/rpmap.org guys was very encouraging. I think we were able to convince them in favor of OSM. The meeting initially designed as a simple OSM overview and JOSM tutorial moved into a discussion on data imports. I believe a collaboration with them would greatly benefit OSM Philippines. There are a couple of issues/concerns (both social and technical) with the planned data import. I have sent my communication with talk-ph list for further discussion of the community. Although this concerns only the Philippines, please have a read and give us further comments: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-ph/2008-October/67.html cheers, maning for OSM Philippines On 10/13/08, maning sambale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks!

Thanks! Let's hope this goes well (my first time teaching OSM and JOSM).

However, if you don't know that in advance, having java 1.5 on the usb flash as well will be the safe thing to do, and not very hard to set up. I've set up such a usb flash using that wiki page, and it works fine. Don't use it very much, but when I did use it, it worked, independently of having a/the right java install on the (Windows) host machine. Updating the JOSM version on the usb is also easy: just put a newer josm-latest.jar there. Or one of the 'deemed' stable snapshots, and change one line in a script. -- Lennard ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
