Hello everyone,
Have made a number of improvements to Freemap recently but downloading the
Geograph photos (on by default) does slow it down rather. Do people feel
it would be better for them to be off by default (that's what I'm doing
on the New Forest Free Map; see blog post) or would it
Looks like the South Downs Way has almost been completed, mapped continuously
from Winchester to Lewes - just the last 15 or 20 miles left to do.

Hey Nick,
its giving me an xml parsing error on both ff and opera
Hello Tim,
Not sure how that happened! It was working fine when I put it back up a
week or so ago. I think the error was there anyway but now I'm setting a
mime type of XML for some reason.
I'll look at it this evening.

Hello everyone,
One or two new developments on Freemap (free-map.org.uk) and Osmajax. I've
implemented a feature where Freemap users can upload a GPX trace (this also
gets uploaded to OSM) and then the Osmajax editor will load up, showing them
their trace, plus waypoints, ready to draw upon.
The nights are closing in and the weather's getting lousy...
Is it? :-)

The morning planning venue for the party is now confirmed as the

The attractive cathedral city of Winchester is one of the few areas in

obvious choice for a mapping party! So come along on Oct 12-14 to help map
the city. The many tree lined streets mean that it

Nick - you clash with Sheffield and all the units are booked to go
there so we need to sort something out?
Could we do half and half? Or even, say, just 6 units?
There will probably be quite a few newbies at Winchester so I think we
need at least 6, people can pair up or go in groups if

Would like to make the evening venue of the East Hants mapping weekend the

Hello Andy,
Hi,
I've been out in the Forest of Bere[1] grabbing GPS traces of the paths
running through the forest but I'm not 100% sure of the best way to tag
them on OSM. The paths themselves run can vary between maintained paths
which are wide enough to drive a vehicle down (but are not

Does someone want to own up to mapping the northern Hindhead Tunnel
approach? There's one issue with this being rendered, since neither
Mapnik nor Osmarender appear to recognise under construction tags, but
I'll deal with that on the main list.
Well I was in the area on Saturday - but it

Another adjustment to the POI editor this morning... I've now removed the

It all looks very nice.
It's also pointed out obvious errors in the location of photographs by
