That’s great news.

I tried - again - to take contact with the sister organisation responsible for 
the sentiers GR in wallonie. See below.

> Bonjour,
> 
> En janvier dernier, je vous offrais les services de la communauté bénévole de 
> OpenStreetMap de mettre en commun votre connaissance du terrain et notre 
> expertise en matière de cartographie afin d’offrir au plus grand nombre 
> l’accès à votre base d’itinéraire de grande randonnées dans de bonnes 
> conditions techniques et qualitatives.
> 
> J’ai contacté plusieurs d’entre-vous mais sans grand résultat.
> 
> Je me permets de vous relancer en vous faisant passer un email reçu à 
> l’instant signalant que vos homologues flamands avaient répondu de manière 
> positive à notre offre et planchaient même sur la gestion complète de leur 
> base d’itinéraire au travers d’OpenstreetMap.
> 
> Restant à votre disposition pour en discuter et/ou se rencontrer,

>> GR routes mapped in OSM.

>> This is only a first step, they are considering managing their route

>> I already added them to the Contributors wiki [1] and I have uploaded the

>> I made a little UMAP [3] to help with my first corrections [4]. It's a
