I'm doing a talk for the Edinburgh Linux Group this Thursday and hoping to generate additional interest in Edinburgh, and it would be great to hook up to any activity happening over Debconf as well as meeting up with others :) In terms of mapping there are a few holes in the city center that need filling, in order to produce a complete "City Center" Map. But pretty much the Northern Half of the city (from George Street to Leith) is still needs detailed mapping, all this this is within walking distance or a simple bus ride. I'll be more than happy to help to co-ordinate and provide local knowledge. Also if there are any others in Edinburgh it would be great if you could make it along to my talk this Thursday, 7:30pm sharp at Edinburgh Training and Conference Venue on St Mary Street, then it would be great to see you. http://www.informationfreeway.org/?lat=55.95071336586124&lon=-3.1828041321902503&zoom=16&layers=B000F00 Cheers Chris -- http://www.chrisfleming.org/ _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-gb
