I am working on putting together a Humanitarian Mapathon at our local
public library (Loveland, Colorado, US).  This will be an event sponsored
by the library (we will not simply be using one of their meeting rooms) and
as such they will be publicizing the event on their website and through
their newsletters.  They do have a couple of questions:

1) Should they promote the event to "families" (e.g. young people
accompanied by parents). What should be the minimum age a) for young people
mapping independent of a parent, b) for young people mapping with a parent?

2) Can mapping be done on a tablet (e.g. iPad).  I know there are apps for
this, but will the iD Editor work on tablets, and how difficult is it to do
remote mapping on such a device?
