Dear all,
I have had a look at the 3 proposals for SOTM 2016
as mentioned in
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_Of_The_Map_2016/Call_for_venues
The proposal for Montréal (Canada) contains a verry interesting, not
reproducible feature : alinging SOTM with the 2016 FSM Forum social
mondial that will take place in Montréal in August 2016.
I therefore propose that
1/ we postpose our proposal to 2017. THis will give us all the time to
make a very strong proposal, and also to gather support, money and
collaboration in order to make a very good SOTM in Brussels
2/ we support as much as we can Montréal 2016 proposal
3/ we manage to participate in the organization of SOTM 2016 to know
from the inside what is needed for the organization (as much as
possible, the organization of the yearly RMLL suppose that the
organisers for year n take part in year n-1 at least to be trained and
prepared)
3 bis/ we pull the people of OSM-fr in to help and support Montréal as
much as they can.
4/ we go to SOTM 2016, enjoy the city (I go there already this summer)
and participate to educate the numerous participants to FSM to becomre
mappers.
5/ we let the OSM Foundation know about out plan.
What do you think about my proposal ?
Much thanks,
Nicolas
