Hi Julien,
I read your message with pleasure: we are in contact with Minister
Philippe Henry (who created the 'cellule géomatique', I guess) to obtain
some GIS data under open license. We were talking about the PICC, for a
first step. (The documents and discussions are here :
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium#Contacts_with_local_autorities)
Philippe Henry is preparing some proposals, which will be communicated
to us at the end of the month (I hope).
We are planning a meeting about this subject on the 12th September in
Namur. You are welcome to join us !
At the end of September, eMerzh, Benoit Coumont and I will have a
meeting with representatives of Henry, and the SPW. The meeting of the
12 September is an occasion to discuss the Minister's Proposal and make
some remarks.
Will you join us on 12 September ?

Hi all,
I know OSM for a long time but so far I could not contribute to this
project. As I would have more time from now, I'd be glad to contribute
to mapping! I'm planning to get a GPS and make some mapping,
especially in my poorly-mapped area: Province du Luxembourg, and other
places, mainly in Wallonie.
By the way, thanks to my last job, I know some friends who are now
working in the "new" (2 years old) "cellule géomatique" from the
Walloon government. I already told them many times about OSM and they
could be helpful in the process of making free some GIS data or at
least to get some information about the "inside job" of the
administration... I also worked a lot on GIS and webmapping apps using
OpenLayers, among others.
Hope to contribute and see you soon!
Julien Minet
PS: As I'm just looking for a OSM-friendly GPS, any hints about the
choice of the device and/or some second-hand markets are welcome!
