Hi everyone Calls from a mobile, the number is 0330 336 2206, and the passcode 33224. Calls will cost the same as a call to an 01 or 02 landline. Calls from a landline, the number is 0800 22 90 900 (same passcode) which will be free Regards Brian On 16 December 2015 at 22:10, Harry Wood wrote: > Thanks for making something happen Rob! > > So this conference call is TOMORROW at 8pm. > > I added those details to the wiki page: > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/UK > > But d'you have the dial-in details? > > Harry > > > > From: Rob Nickerson > To: Talk-GB > Sent: Sunday, 6 December 2015, 19:25 > Subject: [Talk-GB] First UK/GB OpenStreetMap group meeting - 17th > Decemberat 8pm > > > > Hi all, > > > Early this year I published a survey asking about “a UK/GB OpenStreetMap > group”. 101 people filled it in and many contacted me to say they liked > the idea.

Re: [Talk-GB] First UK/GB OpenStreetMap group meeting - 17th December at 8pm
Thanks for making something happen Rob! So this conference call is TOMORROW at 8pm. I added those details to the wiki page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/UK But d'you have the dial-in details? Harry From: Rob Nickerson To: Talk-GB Sent: Sunday, 6 December 2015, 19:25 Subject: [Talk-GB] First UK/GB OpenStreetMap group meeting - 17th December at 8pm Hi all, Early this year I published a survey asking about “a UK/GB OpenStreetMap group”. 101 people filled it in and many contacted me to say they liked the idea. Encouraged by the this and my local Mappa Mercia group, we feel the time is right to start the group. To get us going Wikimedia UK have kindly offered us their teleconference facility for our first meeting – 8pm on 17th December.

Survey results: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A8rKyKUW0X01n-JEMLwEUT4ktX-7WrxNP03YTkZs6lU/edit# To get us going we will need a few people to commit time over the next 6 months. The roles we need are set out below and we will need to initially fill them and then, once we have a constitution in place, we will need volunteers to stand for election. These roles will be needed irrespective of whether decision making lies with the membership or an elected board. * Chair – to provide leadership and ensures the group functions properly * Treasurer – to organise the finances of the group.

This group can also support the aforementioned roles in small discrete tasks.

[Talk-GB] First UK/GB OpenStreetMap group meeting - 17th December at 8pm
Hi all, Early this year I published a survey asking about “a UK/GB OpenStreetMap group”. 101 people filled it in and many contacted me to say they liked the idea. Encouraged by the this and my local Mappa Mercia group, we feel the time is right to start the group. To get us going Wikimedia UK have kindly offered us their teleconference facility for our first meeting – 8pm on 17th December. I've used teleconferencing facilities in the past for State of the Map 2013 and find that they work well (no text/chat facility ensures that there is only one conversation going on - the one being heard by everyone). Survey results: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A8rKyKUW0X01n-JEMLwEUT4ktX-7WrxNP03YTkZs6lU/edit# To get us going we will need a few people to commit time over the next 6 months. The roles we need are set out below and we will need to initially fill them and then, once we have a constitution in place, we will need volunteers to stand for election. These roles will be needed irrespective of whether decision making lies with the membership or an elected board. - Chair – to provide leadership and ensures the group functions properly - Treasurer – to organise the finances of the group. Initially this will mean setting up our bank account. - Secretary/Membership secretary – to keep the register of members up to date (indeed to set on up in the first place), to ensure that voting procedures are carried out in accordance to our agreed policy. There is potential for this to be two separate roles. We will also need an initial working group to provide ideas and discussion. This group can also support the aforementioned roles in small discrete tasks.
