Following Bruno's email I realized how outdated some part of the OSM Wiki were with regards to Quebec participants. I cleaned it up a bit and added a few links encouraging participation. See: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Quebec http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Category:Users_in_Quebec Anyways, there is some ongoing discussion off-list about this, if any other users in Quebec haven't done so yet, I'd encourage you to update your own wiki pages, and of course share via you diary (and here) what you've been up to :) I've written a short entry about this here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/MagicFab/diary/16987 Cheers, Fabian Rodriguez http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/MagicFab signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

(John Robb.Steve Singer, or ) Thanks, -- Bruno Remy OSM Québec ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca Hi Bruno, Great initiative! I'll try to follow it, albeit not closely. Just about 6000 km nowadays. ;) Will there be a mailing list or something? French is not an issue. Regarding work in the area: have a look at residential areas which are built after 2009. Perhaps a couple of other roads have changed names in the meantime. Also the info from the RTC was released under an open data license a while back. Maybe it could be use to add more bus lines to Quebec City. And of course the Bing imagery in the area is great, which could be put to good use as well :) There is also some work to be done to the Geobase roads which were imported in 2009 (by me or others). Those don't have names. It's still on my list to do something about it (by either copying the names from the latest Canvec roads, or replace them altogether if they aren't edited since the import), although I must admit that it has sunken to the bottom. Anyways, it's great to hear that a real community is growing at last :) I wish you guys a lot of succes!

Yeah, quite confusing, it took me some time to locate the proper information. I imagine the reasons for that and hope I won't have to add filters to my email to block the upcoming politics/language endless and off-topic discussion that will ensue.
