<p>Hi<br>
</p>
<p>I don't understand the link between your mail subject "Help
wanted cleaning up in Africa, needs JOSM and Todo plugin" and the
Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team Mailing list. Maybe there is a
context linked to specific countries and a lot of mistakes related
to a previous activation, which could explain the link with HOT,
if so please explain it. If not, this email should be posted on
the related-countries mailing lists in appropriates languages.<br>
</p>
Have a good day from Bouaké,
<p>Augustin<br>
