My stats: Contact about terms via OSM: 8 Response: 0Obviously I used the wrong wording or was unlucky. But I did tailor the message to their home edits. Coincidentally, I've sent 5 OSM contact messages to local mappers over the past 3 years to explore a meetup idea. Zero responses. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

I attempted contact with 168 users. 105 of them accepted the new terms. I got two hostile responses and one user who couldn't find 5 minutes in the month of March to log in and review the new terms. But my efforts pale in comparison to Simon's work. And my 105 responses wouldn't have been anywhere near that without his help and coordination. And thanks to EVERYONE who took a few minutes to send a message to some local users. Without this distributed effort I doubt we would have seen the steady rate of new acceptors as seen on my graphs: http://ni.kwsn.net/~toby/OSM/license_count.html I was really expecting that line to flatten out a while ago.

And a "thank you" for the admins too. Hey, Toby, thank you for your hands-on approach to contacting lost mappers.Do you know haw many you reached and how many responded? Thanks also to Simon Poole, his concept of the lost mappers task force seems to have been really effective. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

OSM is in read-only mode as of 8:02 UTC.
