Dear Xan,

I apologize.  I did take your question seriously and put too much
trying-to-have-some-fun into my reply.

I have seen Google moon map and I think it is an interesting
curiosity.  The possibility of using the OSM stack for a similar crowd
sourced moon map, or other planet is interesting as well.  I'm not
aware of anybody currently working on this.

Perhaps, rather than a map of vector features like OSM, a
crowd-sourced map of telescope photos, similar to Open Aerial Map?  If
you find a Moon map or Mars map project interesting, you should do it!

Best regards,
Richard
