I know of something used in Debian GNU+Linux that sounds is somewhat (it
is a little of a stretch) what you are talking about (called

would want?

what a lot is, but it has to be quiet a few), and would like to be added to=
=20
the map, please e-mail me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). I already have dmacks,=

drm, RangerRick and cirdan.

Please use the following format.

Latitude Longitude "First name 'irc nick on #fink (if applicable)' Last nam=
e"=20
#what you do (be short, something like developer or  maintainer)

If you do not know the Latitude and Longitude of your city, you can use=20
