Hi, in parts of the world for which no particular national/regional resources have been defined, the "id" editor will suggest to get in touch with "us" and/or other mappers through:
* Reddit * Facebook * Telegram * Discord * Twitter * OSM help * OSM IRC channel * OSMF website (this list is defined in from https://github.com/osmlab/osm-community-index/tree/master/resources/world) Clearly one of the global mailing lists is missing here; I wonder which one it should be. "talk" has had participation from ~ 160 different community members in 2019 so far, "tagging" even ~ 200. Though maybe tagging is too specific and talk a better starting point for someone who wants to get in touch? For comparison, I would be interested in how many people have participated in the global venues that id currently links to. Are there public archives that would allow me to count that? I tried to gauge participation in help.osm in all of 2019 and came up with ~ 620 different people who either asked or answered at least one question. But help is a less "egalitarian" landscape than the mailing lists; a very large part of those 620 just ask one question and don't participate further, and a very small number of these 620 answer all the questions. The mailing lists have fewer people participating but those that do are more likely to engage in a bidirectional fashion. It would be interesting to quantify this in a more scientific manner.
