Hi,

2009/9/23 Frederik Ramm frede...@remote.org:
    at the Intergeo trade fair, I spoke to a guy from the university in
 Wroclaw, Poland, who was interested in getting in touch with the Polish
 OSM community (with a view of asking his students, who have to do a lot
 of surveying as part of their courses, to contribute to OSM).

This would be very useful to OSM.


 I was about to say just check out the Polish mailing list when I found
 that while we do have lots of mailing lists for quite small countries,
 there's none for Poland.

 So where does the Polish OSM community hang out? Checked the Wiki and
 found nothing in terms of regular meetings or in fact any contact
 address or real name. Do they perhaps have a forum or something?

There's the forum at
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewforum.php?id=23 with a tiny
community, it's rather silent but in the healthy way, meaning that
people are busy mapping :)  I would have much preferred a mailing list
but others don't seem very enthusiastic about this.

I don't know of any meetings other than mine with user:Mala

 Is
 there perhaps anyone in Wroclaw who would be willing to work with the
 university on this?

There's at least one user from Wroclaw reading the forums.  Wroclaw
municipality is also cooperative and allowed us to use their super
exact aerial photography of the city (10cm or so per pixel) and I
think some other WMS layers.

Cheers

Very good, thanks to you and Ciprian, I will point him to the forum then.

Yes I remember that I was quite surprised to see *very* detailed 
building outlines (garden sheds? dog houses?) in the South-East.

Bye
Frederik
