Hi Nick,

Not replying to your question but as a now "old timer" writing to publicly acknowledge and appreciate all the complimentary work you did in the earlier days of OpenStreetMap and open map data movement. The time for these sites may be passed but the impact is not forgotten!

Hi,

You may remember that some years ago I developed mapthepaths.org.uk -  a site to allow mappers to find which paths are missing from OSM and to do live mapping of the paths within the application.


Even longer ago I created free-map.org.uk (rights of way mapping site) which has not been updated in a long time.

However due to time constraints and other projects I have had no time to work on either since around Covid, and consequently both contain out-of-date representations of OSM mapping data.

Furthermore Chris Andrew’s MOROW initiative is effectively superseding mapthepaths.org.uk.

It will mean I can shutdown one of my two virtual servers if I close these down so this is what I am proposing to do.

Please let me know if you have any serious objections.

Code for mapthepaths is still available on https://gitlab.com/nickw1/mapthepaths, of course, as it is free software.


Thanks,

Nick
