To: Talk Openstreetmap <t...@openstreetmap.org> Hi, It took me a while, but based on all the input we got for the Local Communities Panel at State of the Map Brussels, I wrote a diary [1] entry on building local mapping communities. I focused on the stuff the people who couldn't make it to SotM contributed. It has two main subjects: - sharing what has (or hasn't) worked for us - stuff that the global community could really help us with Even though I got some positive feedback at the diary page and on twitter [2], I'm afraid something like this will have very little impact unless we follow up on it. At the Local Chapters congress during SotM Brussels, it was quite clear that a lot of people did have the energy to keep stuff like this visible. But where are you now? How can we keep working together? For the sharing experience part, I suppose we should build in the wiki. For the needed features, I think we need to be able to make some propositions as some sort of group. And for that, we'd need some kind of channel. Any suggestions?
