Let's first do Brussels, see what works and what not. Adapt and then plan the next event (after summer perhaps). I also think that events on which people can just learn about OSM are more needed now that actual mapping parties. During those meetings we could help novice mappers with problems, but also talk about how to use OSM, ... Much like meetups but perhaps with a better possibility to do some mapping. regards m
