They<br>> look great and people are really thankful that they can get osm data. A<br>> definite success story and we're still in very early days!<br>> Thinking of the three recent activations, could someone come up with an<br>> overview post
for the main osm blog? That should help our profile within the<br>> osm community and will be the sort of thing that could be disseminated to a<br>> wider audience. If nothing else we might be able to gain some publicity off<br>> the back of the recent MapMaker coverage.<br>> Speaking of blogs, I think all us coordinators should be making a real<br>> effort to publish regular updates. It's certainly something I'm very<br>> conscious of.<br>> In other news, we've just started organising a Syria mapping party within<br>> our local osm group. Hopefully we'll get people involved that are new to<br>> both HOT and osm. If anyone reading this is in Oxford, come along! If you're<br>> not in Oxford organise your own event! There's free HOT stickers and badges<br>> for any local groups (once I've had them made...)<br>> Thanks to everyone who is looking at the Task Manager and getting jobs<br>> finished, it has a massive
positive impact.<br>> Happy Friday everyone!
