Hi,
Thanks for all yours answers.
This week has been full of activities, I am sorry to answer so late.
We had good contacts at the "Salon des mandataires", but it does not
seem that a commune will plan a "cartoparty" yet. We had discussion
witch cooptic and other associations there, and it seems obvious that it
might be easier to talk directly with those associations (people who
walk, protection de la nature/milieuvereniging, ...). They have the
volunteers, they have activities : they might be plan a cartoparty if
they think about that... Let's speak to them !
@Julien Minet : I think your approach of speaking with ADL (Agence de
développement local), GAL (Groupe d'action local) is a good idea!
We had a thought that it might be interesting for OpenStreetMap Belgium
to have his own stand there. A lot of political people are coming. They
visit the stand of IGN/NGI, ESRI Belux, ... geographical information
have a central place in municipalities.
So, at the end of the year 2014, we might think about OSM-be to have a
stand at the "salon des mandataires 2015". Maybe (I hope) that others
companies could sponsorise osm-be :-) !
See you,
Julien
PS: I won't read my email until Monday :-)
