[OSM-talk-be] Mapping party Deinze

[Luc Van den Troost]

As the weather promises to be nice, I will probably show up on the
motorbike.

The grey area - Zeveren - looks suited for that, and I might go far beyond
that to link the 'Deinze' area to the better mapped areas around Vinkt,
Lotenhulle and Nevele. On the motorbike, however, I cannot guarantee to have
all details like roadnames, bicycle situations, footpaths, points of
interest...

Also I will not be doing the mapping on the spot as I will be without laptop
there, but i will share the tracks and process them from home.
