Hallo Joost,

after participating in two Bird of a Feather sessions at SOTM, I kept
wondering whether it would be interesting to have such  sessions in
Belgium as well. I though about

* survey planning & survey (traditional / Mapillary / OpenStreetView)
* basic/ advanced editing in JOSM (e.g. PT assistent, but also GRB,
extra layers, etc.)
* how is OSM used  (not sure eveyrbody knows this)
* Use of OsmAnd / OSM on Garmin / other apps ?
* Overpass
* umap (with overpass)
* Maperitive

Given some comments I received in the past about meetings in Brussels,
and talking in English there, I wonder whether 2 separate days
(Flemish/French) would be preferable.
During one of my presentations in Brussels, at least 1 person left the
room because it was not in French, and others didn't show up because
it was not in Flemish.
If we really want to get in touch with our local community, we might
have to do it in French/Dutch I think.

but I like the idea

regards

m
