Hi everyone,
I recently realized that unless you ask fellow KDE contributors personally
where they live, you don't really know where over the world (or even in
your home country) KDE is spread.

So, two questions:
1. Does that make sense to you?
We had a "heat-map" of committers in the old commit-digest:
https://commit-digest.kde.org/issues/2014-11-16/
So yes, it makes sense.
Also, for example:
https://www.debian.org/devel/developers.loc
2. If yes: Does anyone know of a piece of code that allows people to enter
their city of residence and then show people on a map (ideally as an OSM
overlay), or could otherwise maybe create it?
If it's not for the fact that sysadmin want to replace identity, a custom
field there with the city and/or coordinates and some script to grab them,
convert into geojson, and it's really easy (read: few lines of code) to setup
a map with leaflet.

If I read the documentation [1] correctly, Phabricator (which would replace
Identity) allows custom fields in user profiles, so we could still do that.
