Dear OpenStreetMap GSoC Organization Team,

I'm writing regarding the GSoC project "Temporary Road Closures Database
and API" suggested by SimonPoole. I'm very interested in this project and
would like to discuss it further with the mentor to better understand its
scope and requirements.

I've been unable to find direct contact information for Simon Poole. Could
you please advise on the appropriate channel to reach out to him about this
project? If direct communication is not preferred at this stage, I would
appreciate if you could forward the following questions to him:

   1.

   What are the key features you envision for the user submission process?
   How would you balance ease of submission with data quality/validation?
   2.

   Which OSM navigation apps would be the highest priority for integration
   with this road closure API?
   3.

   Regarding the tech stack, what technologies would you recommend for the
   web application that users might use to submit closure data? Are there
   specific frameworks or approaches that would align well with OSM's existing
   infrastructure?

I'm excited about the potential of this project and looking forward to
contributing to the OpenStreetMap ecosystem.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,

Raj Rajeshwar Singh Bisen
