I'll be there. But I'm still confused about the goals of the meeting. Is this a presentation of OSM to a wider audience ? If so, why will we discuss the internal organisation to run an OSM website. This is something that has to take place behind closed doors.
I would group all presentations about OSM together time-wise and after that's done, the insiders can stay and discuss stuff such as * "Do we need a VZW/ASBL to support this? ", * "Discussion around the Open data Wallonia hackathon" * "contacts with administrations or press" We do not need an audience for that, do we ? As for the presentations, if no one else (of the more experienced presenters/mappers) volunteers, I can give a presentation/demo on JOSM. Assuming the audience is not familiar with mapping I thought of the following outline - what is mapping (showing a sketch of a map as we used to do a long time ago) - add a restaurant node in ID - switch to JOSM (I'm much more familiar with it) - Use GPX track + waypoints - Use some presets to show JOSM can be easy as well - some the usage of other data sources, e.g. data of De Lijn (from DB), VMM (from Excel), Monuments from Wikipedia (via small Python script) - simple turn restriction relation (to show it's not all nodes and lines) or do you want to focus more on 1 topic e.g. adding house numbers ? as for the nice maps, besides good examples, I also think of different renderings to show the richness of the data - main OSM site with the different styles to get started (of Brussels to show work on Urbis ?) - OpenLinkMap to show the hyperlinks and opening hours - hike bike map to show the work on walking network - OpenSnowMap - Gesichtskarte (Lier, Mechelen or Antwerpen) - Perhaps some maps from ITO ? - Some examples from Best of the Map (http://bestofosm.org/) regards m On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 7:55 PM, Nicolas Pettiaux <nico...@pettiaux.be> wrote: > 2013/9/26 Julien Fastré <jul...@fastre.info> >> >> Hi, >> >> About RTBF / Le Soir, etc.: IMHO I am not sure we should invite them >> there.
