Re: [OSM-talk] Call for Presentations - SotM 2013 (annual conference)

2013-04-23 Thread Rob Nickerson
Just to add a little more to the Call for Presentations:

This year I personally want to try and get as many people involved as
possible. We are therefore hoping to have a Poster Exhibition for people
who may not be able to attend in person (we can print them locally). If
this sounds interesting to you, please use the same form and specify
"Poster" as the "Session Format". Posters can be mainly pictorial, or
include text. You can bring it yourself or send an electronic copy for
local printing (Sponsorship to cover printing costs would be much
appreciated).

[OSM-talk] Call for Presentations - SotM 2013 (annual conference)

2013-04-23 Thread Rob Nickerson
Hi All,

- please forward this on to your local communities -

It's that time of year again when we look to you, the mind-bogglingly
creative OpenStreetMap community, to tell us what you've been up to. That's
right - it time to submit your presentation ideas for the annual State of
the Map conference.

If you have something interesting to present about your work with
OpenStreetMap and would like to tell the world, we would love to hear about
it. Simply fill out the "Call for Presentations" form explaining the topic
of your presentation. To keep things easy, at this stage we just need a few
words, not a full presentation. :-)

(Call for Presentations closes on Monday 10 June 2013.)



=== A bit more information ===

The State of the Map 2013 Conference to be held in Birmingham, United
Kingdom, from 6 to 8 September is calling for presentations.

The theme of this year’s conference is “Change” so we are particularly
interested in presentations addressing this theme. Our programme will cover
a wide range of topics that will interest everyone from the new
OpenStreetMapper to the professional contemplating using our data.

We are seeking presentations from businesses, the public sector, charities,
and individuals.

If you have something to say, for example, about switching to OSM, barriers
to its use, apps for mobile mapping, changing community organisation or
behaviour, historical mapping, or just anything that you want to present,
then make sure you register your proposal with a a few words to describe
the topic.  Tutorial sessions are especially welcome!

I think I understand that the existing administrative levels dont
work. In the US at least, the reservations have a  "domestic

perhaps we might look at australia? there are similar situations in 
that country for aboriginal land, with some level of autonomy within 
certain areas. i believe some "reserves" cross over state and county 
boundaries also

If the most important information is the "local knowledge" and "community
driven", then the page should be renamed as the "about the project" and not
"copyright". And are you going to adopt the twitter format for all pages in
the future (520px wide) ?

Thumbs up. This is really good. I love having "Local knowledge" in prime
position.

It'd be good to release Leaflet/OpenLayers plugins to do the attribution. If
I were feeling Machiavellian I'd suggest we consider hosting them on our
servers (load permitting) so we get an automatic heads-up of who's using
OSM...

cheers

I already sent you privately a first message asking you to disable the
"digest" option in your mailing list subscription. You send more and more
messages breaking email threads and disturb all other readers and their
email clients handling lists. So please, do it in your ML preferences.
