Yes. Combine them all into one project. Call it OSM.

Aww. No SPOTMaps for my mapping patch (Philippines). Just to add to
Ævar's request, the mappers in the Philippines would really
appreciate SPOT tracing.

Hi,
In the wiki template box for the key's and values, can we include a
field for 'ShortDescription' and another field for 'LongDescription'?
This way, the end-user can clearly understand what the funcation of
the key/value is.
and perhaps have another field for 'WikipediaArticleURL' so then the

I guess im a sucker for the manual work :)
Anyway, that answers it. So my focus is on helping the wiki editors
with making the documentation awesome.
I'll be able to run through the map features page and copy the latest

Are you getting a live feed from the wiki (for the tag descriptions)?
or do you manually copy it in to your database?
my spreadsheet has fields for links to sample pictures and sample

It's inevitable that there will be at least one fork of OSM content if the

There are already other projects using the OSM software stack (CommonMap,
