Hi!<br><br>Well, I think it is worth to:<br>1) Inform journalist and Guardian (in, of course, very civil and<br>informative manner) about OSM efforts to map camps. It is very easy to<br>confuse things. Maybe someone helped to confuse things. Who knows.<br>2) Understand that one article can't cancel about 10 or 15 of articles<br>about OSM and CrisisCommons, so don't worry - OSM is recognized,<br>community work on Haiti is praised and I think in the end real effect<br>on things matters.<br><br>Anyway, it is nice to see that new technologies really help people in<br>need. That's why I'm doin IT and OSM in first place.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Peter.<br><br>2010/3/4 clara <<a ymailto="mailto:clara@aktivix.org" href="mailto:clara@aktivix.org">clara@aktivix.org</a>>:<br>> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----<br>> Hash: SHA1<br>><br>> Hi,<br>><br>> looks like Google Earth has the better PR department, or the Guardian<br>> has some lazy Latin
