Hi all,
I'd be interested to hear if there has been a problem in the past with
board members' editing portfolio? If so, perhaps an appointment of
editor-at-large is actually something the next board should consider?
Regardless, I do agree that editing is one of the core aspects of the
Robin,
Thank you for running for the board, and for your very convincing statement

By being an active mapper, a candidate has demonstrated that they know the

At this point, the number of edits conversation seems well covered, so
I'll keep this first part brief. I think there are three important areas
of growth for OpenStreetMap US:
1) The OSM map itself (more completeness/coverage, whether through
individual edits or well-vetted bulk data imports)
2)
Hi all,
I probably don't have much new to offer this discussion other than perhaps a
slightly different perspective. As with most everyone, my experience has helped
form my opinions. My experience can probably be put in the geo dinosaur
category. Though one who has tried to keep pace and is
