Other than the usual complaint that the list is set up to reply-to the individual rather than the list, but then that degrades into the "You're not using the right email program" garbage... I just try to remember to fix the screwed up addresses before pressing send. James VE6SRV ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
Re: [Talk-ca] Talk-ca Digest, Vol 35, Issue 20
Sam, Can you give me a link to the shp files? I didn't find them on mediafire. Or have they been uploaded yet? I did this myself for some parts of Cape Breton. Much more work than I expected.

[Talk-ca] About OSM communication channels
Hi Canadian OSMers, Happy New Year. "Cold enough for ya'?" I've been helping to administer this talk-ca@ list for about six months now. For the most part, that means that I get an email every time a spammer tries to send something to the list. Then I delete it. We get a few spams per week. I don't think any of them have made it through to the list. On the fun side, I occasionally get an email that is on-topic from a non-member of this list, then forward it so we can all read it. Yay! But what about the rest of us reading this list? How is the list working for all of us? Is there anything that we could or should improve about the list? And finally, which other OSM communication channels do you follow? If you follow a few, would you dare to rank them in some way? Which channels are "better" for you and why? Happy New Year and Happy Mapping. Best regards, Richard ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
