Missing Maps, which is also a very HOT-influenced project, tends to
present itself like this:

"Missing Maps is an open, collaborative project in which you can help to
map areas where humanitarian organisations are trying to meet the needs
of vulnerable people."

Thankfully, at the bottom of their web site, they add:

"OpenStreetMap is the volunteer-driven open data mapping platform which
makes all of this possible, supported by the not-for-profit
OpenStreetMap Foundation."

You can gripe with that a little, since it seems to degrade OSM to being
just the "platform" while the "collaboration" happens on Missing Maps,
but hey, at least they write "OSM makes all of this possible" which is
accurate.

Bye
Frederik
