Hi Brian, I would have liked to see the upcoming changes communicated on both the "announce" mailing list and the OSM blog (it may have helped attract new people to the recent hack day that I was unaware of). There was a great comment on the github page where someone noted that they were made aware of the upcoming change from reading my post to the State of the Map blog, read on the Community Blogs page (blogs.openstreetmap.org) run by Shaun, which ironically is now a lot harder to find on the new OSM page and neither are run by the Communications Working Group. Anyway, I do have to agree with Tom in that I'm not sure why knowledge of the exact date would have helped. Perhaps a late November/early December date could have been announced. Best, Rob
