[OSM-talk-be] Idea!

[Jo]

I'm already doing this, so you have my interest.

Not exactly sure who the customers would be. Also, you say we would be
remunerated and at the same time OSM Belgium gets funding. Those customers
must have deep pockets, or I must have misunderstood. :-)

Anyway, it sounds like a good idea. I'll start to make a wishlist of Garmin
Virb and powerbanks, I'd love to obtain to seed Mapillary with photos...
