While most of OSM contributors are students and poor, some OSM contributors, especially here, are not...
I'm making a suggestion for those who are not poor (students can ignore this) that we could pick developing countries with mappers on the ground and provide some assistance - advice on the map, help with data loggers and any other sort of help. I found one group had one GPS enabled phone between them and were running a competition on "how many edits" to see who got the GPS next. That group has accepted my offer of a data logger and one of the solar powered i-Blue PS-757 units will go over there - not a large cost to me but i think it will be a bonus to them. I know there is a complex UK administered gps loans system, and I could have donated to that, but I'd rather adopt-an-area in a more personal way.
