I'm unfortunately not going to make it down there, but I reckon there should be some interested people around. What would probably be a good idea for next year, would be to get the university grounds and surrounding POIs mapped well - particularly with coffee shops, pubs, restaurants and other things LCA attendees will be interested in. I think that if we could show people some decent maps with useful-at-LCA places on it, people might keep them around and maybe become more interested in OSM. I've been doing bits and pieces of the area recently - but while I know the area well, the Yahoo imagery is quite old. Not living in Tassie any more makes it harder. I did one of the residential colleges where LCA attendees might be staying, but the imagery doesn't have the University Apartments, the new dining hall or admin buildings (all from 2003). Not that Christ College seems to have worked out well once rendered, all the building names are in weird places.
