[HOT] Amazing OSM mapping progress in Nigeria

[nicolas chavent]

Thanks Severin for bringing the news about Rafael and his import work of
eHealth data upfront: trully impressive ! It looks like there's still a lot
to import in OSM from eHealth and am wondering about the next steps which
are foreseen in this country.
Would be great to hear Rafael about how you seen this moving forward, once
you got some rest from this sequence of work.

Excellent time in Nigeria.
