Any reason why OSM is not promoted within the OSGeo Community? (maybe
it is in New Zealand? But it isnt in Canada. Which i think it should
be more.
It seems to me that if more OSMrs want to get noticed professionally,
then the step forward is for more people to try on OSGeo hats.
Rather than trying to re-invent the wheel, as for the 'Outside world'
to use OSM, they need tools & methods that OSGeo can provide.
Well said Sam.
Here's a thought: how about, in the next 2 years, we hold a joint event
here in Canada, organized by OSM Canada and the Canada chapter of OSGeo
(http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Canada)? It would be a SoTM and FOSS4G
co-event (both events would keep their name, but would be at the same venue)
How's that for food for thought??!!!??!!!
Very do-able!
