About ChileAyuda, I went there yesterday and convinced them to put
OpenStreetMap back as the default layer of their Ushahidi
implementation (they had changed it for Google Maps). They agree to
change it on the condition that I give them some support with that and
get a custom render (with more "attractive" colours that the one from
the OSMF). I am looking now for help on getting that custom render
(like a CloudMade Custom Style render) done but with a quick update
cycle like the OSMF Mapnik one. Otherwise we will not see the results
of the fast mapping efforts that we are going to do in the following
days an weeks. If someone has any idea to solve this I will really
appreciate it.<br>
<br>
They have space, resources, good contacts, etc. I am not going to lie
to you, they do not look like "Geo-geniuses" but they are doing their
best effort to help. Customizing Ushahidi, creating new layers for
different topics, etc. and have lots of volunteers doing other stuff
for the <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.chileayuda.com">www.chileayuda.com</a>
website. Also there is people involved with their project that can give
good exposure to any related event, for example: the idea of training
the earthquake affected area natives living in Santiago on how to use
Potlatch to include things that they know in OpenStreetMap.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
