Hello I am very happy to read Marc and Ben proposals here under.
I think we should use a project management tool to floow them in the most efficent way : who proposes what, what is done for when, who does what ... Le Jeu 5 mars 2015 11:37, Marc Gemis a écrit : > - I'm willing to help with one mapping party/presentation every 2 months we can already plan the next 6 mapping parties/ what about organizing one in each large city of Belgium : we'll have one in Brussels on April 25. And we alternate a Flemisch speaking and a French speaking city. Let's imagine (end of the month of) - June : Antwerpen - September : Liege - November : Gent - January : Mons - March : Leuven - May : Namur - June : Oostende - September : (may start over with Brussels) > or > so. The one in Brussels is my next appointment. thanks > - I could try to write some texts for osm.be on stuff that I do (e.g. > middelheim, rose garden, heritage) similar to the presentation on > OpenBelgium when that is useful to show what one can do with OSM. great > - I'm willing to send an email to the province for the Atlas v/d > buurtwegen > (just give me the text :-) ) +1 > - I've contacted an ex-colleague who used drupal for some project (website > of a dogschool).

I am the kind of person interested in organizing and meeting the press. Much less tehcnically oriented (even though I am really interested to understand and practice the tools) >> - Helping Nicolas with the mapping party: You can help him by >> advertising >> showing up of just email him and ask him what you can do: >> nico...@pettiaux.be and more information is here: >> http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Activities#Invitation_.C3.A0_une_Cartopartie_.5B1.5D_.C3.A0_Bruxelles_-_Samedi_25_Avril_2015.2C_9h_.C3.A0_13h imho, we need to write a full program, a trilingual press document describing what we'll do and how, to attract BEGINNERS (and not making them afraid) and transmit that to the press so that they can write good papers. >> - Organize a local meetup: Not very difficult just go and sit somewhere >> and wait for people to show up. We have noticed that this gets people >> more >> involved and communication improves. +1 >> - Organize a mapping party: A very good idea! YES >> - West-Vlaanderen community-contact-person: We need someone (preferable >> from WVL) that can communicate with me and local orgs like westtoer to >> organize a couple of mapping parties. Workload is very low except when >> it's >> about to happen (the mapping party that is). >> >> Other TODO's: >> >> - Website improvements: I think our website looks like ****.

I volunteer for the French part. But I would very much like some active help and support. For example by Julien Fastré and/or marc Ducobu >> - Emailing to your province about the 'Atlas der Buurtwegen': The rights >> to the maps are at provincial level.

This is an important issue because in the past it has been >> assumed >> free and open but these maps are NOT! yes these legal points need a dedicated team imho, we should try ton convince law students and teachers to help >> - Local Chapter: I want to submit a proposal to become a local chapter >> of >> OSMF. Anyone willing to help with some of the administration and reading >> the procedure, contacting Paul Norman, etc... +1 . Much thanks. I propose to assume, for the time being, with Ben some kind of twin headed lead of the OSM-be project. In my views, we would be (Ben and myself) just the 2 porte-paroles/woordvoeders (is this goede Nederlands ?)/leaders representing the most active united speaking communities of OSM-be (I insist, form me the is ONE OSM-be but, to face reality, I think it is appropriate to have one representative who is native speaker of eahc language) >> Some of these may seem strange and you could say that we should all just >> stick to mapping but I think these actions can improve our community and >> give more visibility to OSM. I think you are completely right. We need to better and more communicate. Much thanks and best regards to all.
