Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: Survey re: OpenStreetmap
Fran, Use Openlayers and Leaflet API to OSM Tile Maps, if you are interested to integrate OSM data in apps assuming that you are looking for a counter part of Google Map API using Javascript framework for web mapping application. Re: creating your own Tile Maps for the server, if you want to compete with Apple, Google, Cloudmade, etc., you can use Mapbox TileMill. Foursquare just use the service of Mapbox to create maps and service for their needs.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Mailing lists archived at nabble.com
Hi all, After a while without too much administration on the nabble archives I've offered myself with Mat Loskot as backup admin to update and polish the status of nabble archives. Thanks to Eli and others I've just set up a bunch of mailing lists - libLAS, PDAL and GeoMOOSE projects - Dutch and Philippines Local Chapters - Valencia, Barcelona, Madrid, Cantabria and ES_Norte Spanish microchapters (generally called "geoinquietos") So if your OSGeo list has been more or less recently created and it's not archived at nabble.com, please answer this thread, drop a line to nabble [at] osgeo [dot] org or (even better) fill a ticket at the Trac and we will be glad to help. Another point is about conference mailing lists. Eli asked about the FOSS4G Central and East Europe list to be archived but I haven't seen any other event related list archived (except the conf committee). If you think it's worth we can create a new category for events and add there the different mailing lists we could arrange around general FOSS4G, FOSS4G CEE, FOSS4G NA, etc. Waiting for comments, ideas.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] FDOs on new OSGEO 5.5
Hi Leonardo, Thank you for your interest in OSGeo Live. Mapguide has some difficult technical challenges working on the latest Ubuntu, and this is why it was removed from this version of OSGeoLive. The installer and the documentation was not removed since Mapguide is a graduated OSGeo Project. I hope that this will be fixed soon by the Mapguide community.
