    Hi<br>
    <br>
    <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/MAN/9899/eagle-inn-salford" target="_blank">http://whatpub.com/pubs/MAN/9899/eagle-inn-salford</a><br>
    <br>
    Considering CAMRA's What Pub? website is volunteer, crowd sourced, I
    was mildly disappointed to see it using Google maps. I've just this
    minute written an email to them explaining some of the advantages of
    using OSM. I thought if any actual CAMRA members here could also
    chip in it might persuade them to swap over. <a href="mailto:camra@camra.org.uk" title="Email CAMRA" target="_blank">camra@camra.org.uk.</a><br>
    <br>
    It might even be possible to share databases to improve the quality
    of both.<br>
    <br>
    Cheers<br>
    Dave F.<br>
