There's definitely a couple of footpaths that didn't get done in the area I
was covering.

Here

Wonham Way to Felday Road is a probable Bridleway and here

Sutton Place and Franksfield is a footpath spur that looks like it
should go somewhere.

Generally most signposted paths appeared to have been mapped but I was
concentrating on highway=road elements rather than footpaths yesterday so
there may be others that I didn't notice.

Hi 80n,

Sorry I'm missing this - but I just arrived back from Colorado yesterday and 
have had a family occasion too, so consequently a bit tired!

Would be good to know of any missing footpaths still in that area though after 
today - am looking for an excuse to do some in-fill Surrey footpath mapping in 
the next few weeks.

Yes, the oven is on and the cake is being baked.

Meeting at the William Bray in the delightful village of Shere at 10:30am on
Sunday.

The focus will be on Shere and a handful of neighbouring villages that are
all incomplete.  This is walking country so there's also likely to be plenty
of unmapped footpaths to find.

Weather forecast is promising at the moment

You misunderstand.  There is no change of heart.  Anything contributed to
OSM automatically gets fed into fosm.org so both projects benefit.  While I
don't personally contribute to OSM any more, I don't have a problem with you
or anyone else contributing to OSM.

It'll be interesting to see how this plays out in a mapping party.  At the
last Surrey meetup there were both OSMers and fosmers, we all get along well
and so I'm not expecting there to be any issues.  There are very few people
with the entrenched mindset that there should only be one map and that all
other mapping projects are inherently hostile competitors.  It's not like
that at all.

Actually, I'm expecting that there will be attendees with several different
agendas.  Large parts of Surrey are not ODbL so at one end of the scale I'd
expect some people to want to remap existing CC-BY-SA content.

There are also some people who want to create a CC0 map.  There's been talk
of creating a clean unencumbered dataset for this area that can then be fed
into OSM or used for any other purpose.  That might play out as well at this
mapping party.

None of these things get in the way of getting out into the beautiful Surrey
Hills doing what we all like doing the most.

It is always a lot of fun.  Did I mention that Shere is one of Surrey's
prettiest villages, or that the Olympic Cycle Road Race route runs through
the area.  It's a great area for walking and cycling, and a fine place to
spend a day out.

It's an OSM mapping party.  Are you going to come along?

Is this a OpenStreetMap.org or FOSM.org event?
