Hi,<br>
<br>
Whilst discussing the best way forward with training, the statistics
from this page may be of interest:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://piwik.hotosm.org/index.php?module=CoreHome&action=index&idSite=3&period=month&date=2015-05-01#/module=Actions&action=menuGetPageUrls&idSite=3&period=month&date=2015-05-01">http://piwik.hotosm.org/index.php?module=CoreHome&action=index&idSite=3&period=month&date=2015-05-01#/module=Actions&action=menuGetPageUrls&idSite=3&period=month&date=2015-05-01</a><br>
<br>
You'll have noticed the 10,121 visitors so far this month.<br>
<br>
LearnOSM is not perfect, in fact far from it. It does provide a
central link which is 'owned' by HOT, and when training guides,
video's, screencasts, etc.. are being produced, can I suggest you
consider visiting <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/hotosm/learnosm">https://github.com/hotosm/learnosm</a>, and submitting
a pull request or an issue, so that we can link to the new guide. <br>
<br>
As several people have commented - there's no shortage of sites with
guides how to get started. In my opinion, the problem is more to do
with filtering them, so that you only get the newest & best. It
is very difficult to tell what is maintained, what is not, and
whether the advice is correct or not. Personally I will try to go
back to the wiki articles I have been involved in during the past
few years and updating them - I'm pretty well constantly updating,
reviewing and adding to LearnOSM - any help appreciated!<br>
<br>
Let's not throw away that which is good, but instead try to build
from it. <br>
<br>
When we discuss ways forward, funding and grants, please remember
that everything requires the attention of the Tech team. I'm not a
member and have no connections with them, but I do know that if we
don't support them in whatever they need to make these thoughts
actually happen, then it is just so much hot air.<br>
<br>
Regards & please keep mapping - we need you all!<br>
