[Talk-GB] WeeklyOSM 295

2016-03-18 Thread Jinal Foflia
The weekly round-up of OSM news, issue #295, is now available online in
English, giving as always a summary of all things happening in the
OpenStreetMap world:

http://www.weeklyosm.eu/archives/7128

*Among others:*

   - Remember the first few days of mapping OSM? User SM@Edit shares his
   first time experience with OpenStreetMap...
   - Wondering if there is a tool that can compare the standard OSM layer
   and Satellite imagery? Look in to try the tool...
   - A script by user baditaflorin that can help find duplicated nodes...
   - Read more about the humanitarian mapathon where two-hundred and twelve
   10 year old children from elementary school mapped to eradicate
malaria [image:
   :clap:]
   - Want to build your own offline OSMAND map? Look in to read more about
   it...

Cheers,

Jinal Foflia

Re: [Talk-GB] Current Draft of OSM-UK Articles of Association

2016-03-18 Thread Gregory
I didn't see an e-mail with details for tonight's meeting.

Details I have are
Phone: 0800 229 0900
Code: 33224

I created a document for minutes/notes
https://hackpad.com/2016-03-17-OSM-GB-Meeting-UGWMWunxvTb

Could we start using a consistent tag in the e-mail subjects? This will
help people like me set filters so I see messages stand out from the
general Talk-GB list.
How about adding [GB Chapter] to the subject of every e-mail?

>From Durham,
Greg.
