[OSM-newbies] Conversational gambit: New to OSM?

[Richard Weait]

Hi newbies list,

Are you new to OpenStreetMap?  Here are some questions as conversation
starters.  All are optional.

1. What first brought your attention to OSM?  A magazine article?  A
web site interview?  SteveC's FLOSS Weekly interview?

2. What made you decide to get involved and join this list?

3. What is the trickiest part about starting with OSM, for you?  Can
you suggest how to make this tricky thing less-tricky?

Or, of course, feel free to post your questions about beginning to
contribute data to OpenStreetMap.
