Merci beaucoup PauLLA ,  Université de Pau et des Pays de l’Adour et
Communauté d’Agglomération de Pau Pyrénées  .
Its always nice to have Tile CDN's based on geo locations , would take
lot of load off the main server and make it more decentralised :)

Re: [OSM-talk] State of the Map 2013 - Call for Venues

I am in no place to bid for a venue as its hard to find something
which matches 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_Of_The_Map_2013/Call_for_venues#Criteria
but I have a wishlist for the location .

I really really want it to be held at a developing country where OSM
data is very less , some place where there is hardly any open geo data
source  or even a strong community of mappers .

By suggesting such a place I know I am also foolishly suggesting a
place where its hard to organise an event and would have a scarcity of
local volunteers but a SOTM at any such country would bring in a lot
of enthusiasm , team of excellent mappers, developers and will give a
huge push to Govt / GIS bodies to open up their data and also a huge
boost / thumbs up to the local community .

 The developed world have already their own SOTM-EU and SOTM-US and
moreover their maps are very much presentable and in some case the
maps are much better than the commercial/propreitary ones .
Unfortuanately the same couldnt be said for the maps in the other
parts where routing doesnt work , the relations are mis tagged and
lack of data sources are problems to name few.

Its just a wish and hope I havent offended anyone .

Regards,
Pavithran
