[OSM-talk-be] OSM stats and URBIS

[Julien Fastré]

The question of the Belgian Local Chapter was discussed a couple of month
ago, but the idea was abandoned because there was no need for that.

If someone want to relaunch the idea, I am quite volunteer to associate.

We discussed about that after the informal meeting in Liege on the 13th May
(drinking a beer /after/ the meeting). Ivo was there: maybe he will give his
point of view on the subject. (if I have more time monday, i can also give
mine... But i am on holiday until monday)
