Hi Matt,

And welcome.  There is a mailing list for historical mapping, the main OSM 
database is only for objects as they currently exist.  Lost of interesting 
discussion on the historical list, and many interesting challenges to make it 
all work correctly. :-)

I'm interested in aboriginal mapping and rendered maps in aboriginal languages 
as few years back.  It would be super to have more data from and by first 
nations.  There is a continuing multi lingual map project that might interest 
you. 

So welcome, happy mapping and thanks for introducing yourself!

[Talk-ca] Winnipeg Mappy Hour

2014-02-04 Thread Sam Dyck
Hello Winnipeggers

Fellow Talk-CAer Richard Weait will be visiting out little piece of
subarctic paradise. We (me and at least one other local OSMer) are planning
to meet Sunday, February 9th at Stella's at Plug In (
http://osm.org/go/Wpz9m~CF8) from 19:00-21:00 to informally talk about OSM.
You are welcome to attend, and it would be great if you could make it.
Anyone who happens to be in Manitoba is welcome to come, please let me know
so we have an idea of who to expect.

Thanks

Sam
