Hi OSM NL,

Sorry dat ik in het Engels schrijf. Ik betwijfel of mijn Afrikaans
hier wordt begrepen ;-)

I think Stefan is referring me to contacting uni-wuppertal.de to ask
if they could put me into contact with the person who runs the backend
of garmin.opensteetmap.nl (osm.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de). I asked if
they are unable to put me into contact with the person if they'd
consider redirecting the service to
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/Download
garmin.openstreetmap.nl has been offline for I think around 2 years
(and disrupted long before then). Despite the service not functioning,
it still used to accept map requests and told users to wait for an
email. The service still accepts donations despite being abandoned
(>£8000 Bitcoin received).
The service should be maintained else shutdown for the health of
OpenStreetMap. The OSM Operations
Group and Data Working Group have received misdirected complaints
about the service in the past.

For background see: https://github.com/openstreetmap/operations/issues/615

This all feels like the painful process I had to go through to get
forum.osm.org transferred a few years back.

I am an OpenStreetMap.org sysadmin first and have been a volunteer
sysadmin for over 15 years. I care about OpenStreetMap first before my
new employer.

Kind regards,

Grant
