Hi Laura and Elizabeth — welcome to the HOT list! It’s fantastic to have more HOT volunteers who are as grounded in their local community as they are in our global one.
You’ll probably find that it’s hard to connect with other HOT members over this listserv as it’s so big and diverse: I encourage you to check out the #hot IRC channel or just go on the Mumble voice chat server and chat there. It’s a great way to learn more about what HOT’s up to, meet fellow volunteers and answer any questions you may have. IRC: irc.openstreetmap.org (channel: #hot) Mumble: connect to hotosm.org. Make sure your microphone is set up! <http://irc.openstreetmap.org/> <http://irc.openstreetmap.org/> <http://irc.openstreetmap.org/> <http://irc.openstreetmap.org/> On Thu, Jun 9, 2016 at 10:49 PM Elizabeth Kelly <kel...@obu.edu> wrote: > I don't think I have introduced myself- and I have been on the list for > months! > I teach sociology at a small Christian liberal arts university in central > Arkansas.
