Yesterday, the OpenStreetMap Foundation completed a funding drive of £40,000 ($60,000) to buy two new servers.
Because of the success of the fundraising, they have decided to extend the campaign to raise another £32,500 ($50,000). See http://blog.openstreetmap.org/2013/06/26/extending-funding-drive/ for details. If you've got some spare cash and want to support the technical development of the map anyone can edit, go to http://donate.openstreetmap.org/server2013/ You can also donate via Bitcoin. OSM is growing at a phenomenal rate. The success and ramping up of OSM Foundation fundraising shows that OpenStreetMap is perhaps experiencing the same kind of organisational growing up process as Wikimedia has... -- Tom Morris http://tommorris.org/ _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
