Mike<br>It's great to see such good progress in Australia. There was virtually nothing when I visited back in June.<br><br>At your current rate you could be the first to declare a whole continent complete ;-)<br><br>It would be nice to see some really long distance routes tagged. Can't you lend a gps to a truck driver doing a round trip to Perth?

If you use the following url you'll initially get the "...more OSM

Excellent! Thank you Etienne. <br><br>
As for general Australian status, we now have two contributors based in
Canberra, Andrew and David, who are coming up to speed committing mapping
data. I've just left Sydney, at least for a few months, but have
just collected info for a 900 km strip up the NSW coast which should
appear along with Sydney's northern beaches over the next three weeks. I
currently working on Toowoomba in Queensland and some surrounding bush
towns.<br><br>
