If just one of them discovers OSM somehow, finds out it is better (they can have the map data back, unlike mapmaker where they can 'only' view results on google, plus more types of data are supported - footways, various POIs ....), then he may tell others about it and then maybe entire such mapmaker community will gradually come to OSM. :) Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
