Hi,

I want to announce another informal meeting in STUK Leuven on January 6th
2012.

Topics we might discuss:

JOSM, introduction (for newbies) and advanced uses like

   - How to reassign shortcut keys
   - How to work with photos in combination with GPX tracks
   - How to put emphasis on the objects/properties that really interest you
   (mapcss)
   - How to assemble the names of objects from their tags
   - How to easily trace from Bing imagery and add housenumbers
   (associatedStreet and Terracer plugins)
   - How to script JOSM with Python and use it for quality control on cycle
   node networks


License change and remapping

   - How to put another kind of imagery than Bing in the background on
   JOSM, more specifically one which highlights all the objects that may be
   affected by the license change and which may disappear/go back to a
   previous version on the 1st of April 2012.


Toerisme Vlaanderen semi-automated import of accomodation facilities
Maybe its counterpart of the province of Namur (depending on the presence
of the person involved with talking with them)


   - How do we go about this? Quality control (is an edit after the
   'import' valid) and swiftly applying regular updates from upstream are
   important issues


Maybe it won't be that informal, after all :-)

Will STUK be OK, or would it be better to get a quieter room with a
projector? I know of one, which is also nearer to the station of Leuven,
but I would still have to go and ask whether it's available on Friday
evening.
