Clifford, Kudos to you for stepping up to deliver a presentation about OpenStreetMap!

For a Linux audience this shouldn't be difficult, but I would still state that most other map sources are not truly "free" - and say a little bit about why that is a problem. > What do you tell people when they ask you why you map? Mapping in OSM is a form of free expression (really a broad form of free speech), just like blogging, editing a Wikipedia article, or creating a video. In the past editors a publishers decided what got mapped, now - with OpenStreetMap - we can decide.
