Note it's not yet decided if we'll replace Identity with Phabricator or if we'll use something else. (I was going to throw my opinion of such a replacement here, but I realized it would make this thread quickly go off topic) -- Nicolás

Re: Creating a map of KDE contributors?
I also remembered it, but I didn't remember the location of the map. It's even in the internet archive: https://web.archive. org/web/20020402050748/http://worldwide.kde.org/map/ 2016-09-20 14:11 GMT+02:00 Sebastian Kügler: > On dinsdag 20 september 2016 11:49:43 CEST Jonathan Riddell wrote: > > Gnome already do this > > https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeWorldWide > > > > and I have vauge memories of KDE doing it in the past too, or maybe I > dreamt > > that > > You didn't dream that: https://dot.kde.org/2002/03/16 > /kde-worldwide-goes-live > -- > sebas > > http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org >

If it's not for the fact that sysadmin want to replace identity, a custom field there with the city and/or coordinates and some script to grab them, convert into geojson, and it's really easy (read: few lines of code) to setup a map with leaflet. http://leafletjs.com/examples/geojson.html Ciao -- Luigi

Creating a map of KDE contributors?
Hi everyone, I recently realized that unless you ask fellow KDE contributors personally where they live, you don't really know where over the world (or even in your home country) KDE is spread. I think this is a pity, given that knowing that would allow us to, among other things - show the world how globally wide-spread KDE is - make it easier to organize local events (like release parties or just local meetups) - determine who could help with local FOSS events where KDE could participate - pick locations for sprints or conferences depending on minimal overall travel effort Therefore, I would like to create a map of KDE contributors' home towns (the towns/cities would be enough, no need to know the precise location). Ideally it would be possible for people to decide whether they want their name to show up publicly, or whether they just want to show up as an anonymous contributor. So, two questions: 1. Does that make sense to you? 2. If yes: Does anyone know of a piece of code that allows people to enter their city of residence and then show people on a map (ideally as an OSM overlay), or could otherwise maybe create it? Cheers, Thomas
