If I haven't mapped it I've validated it so I suggest it gets archived.

Thanks John

This activity is in company with TECHO (translated as Roof),  a youth led
non-profit organization present in Latin America  the Caribbean. Through
the joint work of families living in extreme poverty with youth volunteers,
TECHO seeks to overcome poverty in slums.  *TECHO* is a youth led

We are looking for volunteers that help us with imagery stitching and
publishing in a TMS server, for a next mapping party.

Thanks for any help or advise!

[HOT] [FIELD PAPERS] Alpha Release

2015-04-16 Thread Mhairi O'Hara
Hello Hotties,

Stamen Design have been working on a new release of Field Papers and now
have an Alpha version ready for testing. Please see a summary of their blog
[1] regarding their recent work and the help they need and would greatly
appreciate from the HOT community:

*For years, humanitarian efforts have turned to Field Papers to aid
on-the-ground mapping. Now, thanks to a grant from the Hewlett Foundation
by way of the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team, Stamen is rebooting the
application and refreshing its infrastructure. Our goal is to keep Field
Papers working effortlessly, no matter where they are, and to provide a
foundation for the years ahead.*

*To help us get there, we want to hear from you – is the software working
well? What’s tricky? What’s slow? We’re also looking for translators to
help expand the software to all localities where it is needed.*

*Give next.fieldpapers.org http://next.fieldpapers.org/ (what we’re
calling today's alpha release) a try and reach out with your feedback or
translations: *

   -
*General feedback and bug
   reports: https://github.com/fieldpapers/fieldpapers/issues
   https://github.com/fieldpapers/fieldpapers/issues *
   -
*Join an existing translation team or form a new
   one: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/fieldpapers/
   https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/fieldpapers/ *

*Note that scanning marked-up atlases back in doesn’t work yet — we’re
rolling that out soon, and then (along with your help and feedback) it’ll
be a beta!*

Kind regards,

HOT + Stamen Design
