Yey!

Thanks a lot for your time , your dedication and your ideas!

I'm really curious to know what they will come with... Some human
ressources, some computing power or some visibility or some help for better
collaborations ....

Thanks again :)

> - - the routing functionalities has also some interest for them ;

> They also asked if osm contributors would be interested in "diff" of
> urbis data : what has changed in their data from date X to date Y.
> This would ease the update operation between urbis and OSM (we also
> suggest to make a diff between their data and what is imported in OSM).

> The CIRB is collecting those ideas, will write some internal documents
> and continue the process internally. We will be kept in touch.
