[OSM-talk-be] Informal meeting in STUK Leuven on January 6th

[Ben Abelshausen]

I will try to make it to Leuven this time!

Maybe the licence change and how to handle it in an organized manner could
be dicussed as well?

Does someone have an idea of the (inactive)users that still need to be
contacted regarding the licence change? There are a few users with a huge
amount of contributions that will be deleted on the 1st of April. Do we
start re-mapping or first try and contact the user(s) again? I think this
requires maybe a more coordinated effort no?

Regards,

Ben
