<font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size:11pt">Hi US OSMers,<br>
<br>
I posted news about MapQuests four new language sites on the talk list, but wanted to share the news here too!<br>
The whole planet is available when you visit any of the sites, so pan over to the US and see what’s there! Awesome development include: routes are draggable, you can share to FB, your GPS or by email.<br>
<br>
I’d also like to take this moment to introduce myself the community advocate with the MapQuest team! I will manage the $1 Million fund donated by MapQuest to OSM in July. More than that, I am a communication portal between OSM and MapQuest. Feel free to contact me at <a href="hurricane.coast@mapquest.com">hurricane.coast@mapquest.com</a> with any questions, feedback, comments, ideas or just to say howdy!<br>
<br>
Happy Mapping, <br>
Hurricane Coast<br>
<br>

Howdy!<br>
<br>
I wanted to let your radars pick up some interesting news from MapQuest:<br>
As of early this morning (it's 6am in Denver ;)), MapQuest announced the beta launch of four new European mapping sites built on OpenStreetMap data!<br>
<br>
I've got to say, it's super cool to see it's powered by Nominatim and features like draggable routes!<br>
And-- you can send your maps to Facebook, your GPS and email.<br>
Woohoo!<br>
<br>
You can check out the sites at <font color="#0000FF"><u><a href="http://open.mapquest.fr">http://open.mapquest.fr</a></u></font> <font color="#0000FF"><u><a href="http://open.mapquest.de">http://open.mapquest.de</a></u></font> <font color="#0000FF"><u><a href="http://open.mapquest.it">http://open.mapquest.it</a></u></font> and <font color="#0000FF"><u><a href="http://open.mapquest.es">http://open.mapquest.es</a><br>

These sites are in addition to <font color="#0000FF"><u><a href="http://open.mapquest.co.uk">http://open.mapquest.co.uk</a></u></font> which was launched earlier in the summer.<br>
