Hi All, I am currently considering a charity mapping party and need some ideas from the oz community. Last mapping party I held in Canberra 20 odd people turned up. I think the interest in OSM is growing.
So I am considering organizing a mapping party next month where GIS professionals who actually want to learn about OSM for use at work to pay a token sum of $2 which gets donated to Red Cross for Haiti. Believe me there are a lot of ArcGIS ppl here in Canberra who are seriously considering using OSM for work. I want your thoughts on the idea. Any gaping holes, objections? I also want to know if we have any jointly held (as in the trusted osm community) paypal account. If not I will have to hesitantly use my own. I have tentatively selected Feb 20th for the party please see http://mappingparty.eventwax.com/canberra-mapping-party-2/ Feed back welcome Kind regards Shoaib Burq -- Canberra twitter: http://twitter.com/sabman http://nomad-labs.com
