I'll be coming to the meeting in Berlin and look forward to seeing you all and discussing OSM intergation into Wikimedia sites. It would be nice to get all the interested parties together on some forum before the meeting whether it be IRC, mailing lists or something else. I added myself to the "Team" section on the wiki but more communication with the other nodes in said team would be welcome:) _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
