[OSM-Talk-ZA] FW: [OSM-talk] keepright! goes global

[Brendan Barrett]

Hey all

For those of you that do not monitor the Talk mailing list... keepright now covers pretty much the whole world! It is an automated error reporting tool for OpenStreetMap that points out errors in the map data. Currently, it is pointing out thousands of errors here in SA that would have been very difficult to spot otherwise. Check it out some time... but please be careful, fixing errors becomes addictive!

Regards,
Brendan Barrett
