From the material on their website they have some of the townlands for Co Fermanagh, however the locations are wrong. Is this something we could work with them to try and resolve?
PlacenamesNI seem to be in the process of linking to Logainm and vice versa. In the what’s new section ( http://www.placenamesni.org/whatsnew.php ) they announce the creation of a two-way electronic link-up. I have tried to contact Professor Mícheál Ó Mainnín but have been unable to establish any kind of communication, I believe he is a very busy person. However, a few other people who have worked on the Placenames Project seem to be very open to the idea of working with OSM, especially the ability to display the map in Irish language.
