[OSM-talk-be] IWT-proposal in the making at ICRI Leuven

[Ivo van den Maagdenberg]

Hi all,

Last week I volentarily attended an interesting preliminary meeting in 
Leuven at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Law and ICT (ICRI) in Leuven 
(Mark VdBorre, thanks for getting the initial networking done for OSM!).

Check at what the ICRI does at the following link 
http://www.law.kuleuven.be/icri/research.php

The idea is to to get funding to research around the subject of 
volunteered geographic information and crowd sourcing. Certainly something 
where OpenStreetMap as a group fits in to a reasonable extent. The minutes 
(in dutch) of the meeting are available at http://bit.ly/fjhII5

Please bear in mind that this proposal is supposed to be finished by the 
end of this month. It is not meant to be diseminated widely over the net. 
Nevertheless I would be pleased to get OSM-inclined feedback from those 
interested in this kind of stuff to help and tune the proposal so that it 
suits the needs and wants of OSM community better. Vow your concerns and 
point out possible ommisions, suggest or rephrase a target, anything you 
can contribute is welcome at this stage.

Kind regards,
Ivo
