How do the Seattle local group or other local groups engage with the wider
US community?

Try to find new audiences, this mailing list is saturated with your target 
market already. So, try google ads or a banner on osm.org. Work with existing 
local groups (e.g. the seattle group had no real heads up about at least 2 out 
of the 3 meetings).

[Talk-us] Mappy Hour suggestions?

2012-12-11 Thread Martijn van Exel
Hi all,
We've done three mappy hours now I think? To me they are great fun and
useful. That is not to say we can't improve. What are your
suggestions? I am particularly interested in hearing from folks who
have participated, but of course anyone is welcome to chime in.
One thing I was thinking about was giving newcomers a chance to
introduce themselves and / or ask any questions they have, start the
mappy hour off with that perhaps.
Thoughts?
