Hello Mike,
Many thanks for your message, it's nice to hear appreciation of the sites.
As I said, mapthepaths may come back as part of the MOROW project.
Thanks,
Nick

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!
Mike

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on either since around Covid, and consequently both contain out-of-date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

of course, as it is free software.
Thanks,
Nick
