I just take this opportunity to add one suggestion: we should try to "convert" Linux users to OSM mappers. Many Linux users would like to take part in the Open-source wave, but don't know how to code. I'm convinced that these forces could be used for mapping. So instead of biking in the cold, let's discuss with them in the warm... ----- Mail Original ----- De: "Andy Robinson (blackadder-lists)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> À: "osm" <[email protected]> Envoyé: Lundi 1 Décembre 2008 13:59:32 GMT +01:00 Amsterdam / Berlin / Berne / Rome / Stockholm / Vienne Objet: [OSM-talk] Where have all the contributors gone? The latest charts are now online [1] and they show that the number of contributors has dropped in the last couple of months. The number of new users signing up each day hasn't changed much. Is it the northern hemisphere winter kicking in? Has the credit crunch or fuel prices made a difference? Students returning to studies? If anyone out there who was contributing in the summer and has now stopped could share the reasons I might help shed some light.
