I would more than glad to post something in the talk-es too, to gather
some more mappers from the spanish-speaking community.
I see one handicap here for spanish would-be contributors: OSM Tasking
Manager is only in english.
It would be a very nice idea to have it translated in different
languages, with a menu on the top to choose your prefered language. I
offer myself to make the translation into spanish, through transifex or
any other means. And again, it would be important too to deploy an easy
way to translate the description, workflow... texts to different
languages, so we could reach more people.
Cheers,
Rafael Ávila Coya.
