</span></div>I'm wondering if
the tasking manager is able to provide some kind of feed. The SBTF is getting ready to use PyBossa (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://blog.okfn.org/category/okf-projects/pybossa/" target="_blank">http://blog.okfn.org/category/okf-projects/pybossa/</a>) as a microtasking manager. I was thinking that we could provide a list of volunteer opportunities. The SBTF has a lot of downtime where we lose engagement with volunteers. This would expand their understanding and provide needed work.</span><div>
<span style="font-family:'Lucida Grande'"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:'Lucida Grande'">We could just point people to the OSM TaskMgr, but this raises a larger point. We might be able to generate much greater interest and capacity by unifying the experience a bit.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:'Lucida Grande'"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:'Lucida Grande'">Cross pollination of volunteers is a great thing, as their enthusiasm will spread outward.</span></div>
