Hi all,<br><br>I'm writing on behalf of Software Freedom International, the organisation that runs <a href="http://softwarefreedomday.org/" target="_blank">Software Freedom Day</a>
(SFD). We currently have a registration system for teams taking part in
SFD that puts a pin in the map for teams, and we'd like to migrate that
system onto OSM.<br>
<br>The 2009 teams can be seen at <a href="http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/2009/map.shtml" target="_blank">http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/2009/map.shtml</a>, and uses Google Maps.<br><br>What
we're looking for is a volunteer (or volunteers!) to work alongside our
technical team to make a slick, easy to use registration system -
integrated with the rest of our site - and a great-looking map to raise
the profile of software freedom. Apart from taking on responsibility
for developing the registration system and map, you'll be expected to
attend regular IRC meetings and coordinate your work with that of other
SFI officers and board members. The opportunity also exists to join the
board and be involved in developing our strategy.<br>
<br>If you think you're the right person, please send a
CV or summary of relevant experience to <a rel="nofollow" href="mailto:info@softwarefreedomday.org" target="_blank">info@softwarefreedomday.org</a>
(not this mailing list!), with the words "Application: OSM mapping for
SFD" in the email subject line. The deadline for applications is 6
November 2009. Any questions regarding this position should be directed
to <a rel="nofollow" href="mailto:info@softwarefreedomday.org" target="_blank">info@softwarefreedomday.org</a> (not this mailing list!).<br><br>SFI
is a 501(c)(3) non-profit company registered in New Hampshire, USA; all

approved expenses. We have been organising SFD since 2004 and have
