As seen on OpenGeoData @OpenStreetMap Twitter -- @openstreetmap <http://twitter.com/openstreetmap> Jon '*maddog*' Hall's Picks OSM for one of Today's Six Best OSS Projects http://opengeodata.org/jon-maddog-halls-picks-osm-for-one-of-todays
=> http://www.linux.com/news/software/applications/301412-jon-maddog-halls-picks-for-todays-six-best-oss-projects- Backstory -- Jon 'maddog' Hall is currently Executive Director of Linux International, longtime board member of Usenix, and writes a monthly column for Linux Magazine (the US one, not the UK one). He was one of Linus Torvold's earliest supporters in industry, and is perhaps the premier graybeard spokesperson for FLOSS. For ideas for the 'list' column, Jon polled his local LUG mailing list for nominations. Although I am in Boston, I subscribe to the GNHLUG list since the groups overlap and they have interesting discussions, and I shop their table at the big hamfest. Both GNHLUG and BLU had gotten briefed on OSM by Richard Weait a couple years ago. So two of us independently nominated OSM to Jon for his list, not knowing the other was doing so. In a small enough poll, two votes wins! -- Bill n1...@arrl.net bill.n1...@gmail.com
