Effectivement James,
Comme ailleurs en Europe, les communautés OSM sont beaucoup plus organisées.
La communauté OSM-France a mis en place des serveurs qui permettent l'accès à 
la carte OSM. On y retrouve aussi Osmose, uMap et l'hébergement du style 
humanitaire.  Au SOTM-Fr à chaque année,  quelque 100 personnes de tous 
horizons convergent pour y participer. Aussi, beaucoup de projets, notamment 
avec les organisations locales et autres. Et depuis longtemps, ils organisent 
localement des journées OSM avec écoles, municipalités et autres intervenants.

Ils ont donc la capacité de gérer de tels projets, de se coordonner avec les 
établissement scolaires. Ce sera intéressant de voir ce qui sera réalisé dans 
le monde scolaire.

   - The new curriculum (pdf) for French high schools states that all students 
should be introduced to geospatial data usage. One of the expected abilities in 
that domain is the ability to “contribute to OpenStreetMap in a collaborative 
way”.

What it means is we can expect to see more interest from schools in Canada.  
Adding tags to buildings is fairly simple and less error prone than some 
activities. 

Using streetcomplete I think would work even without buildings.

Thoughts please.

Thanks John

Agreed but its part of a trend and perhaps needs a bit of planning.
