Hi,

Actually, Jo already did (and took me along). Well, they decided we're OK.
Basically they accept the risk of having perfect maps of GR routes (long
distance hiking trails) out there, so they're willing to share their data
with us. It's a great opportunity to show what we can do - and hopefully
have them be a shining example to less open-minded GR organisations in
other regions and countries.

To discuss some practicalities, we're setting up a meeting in Brussels.
Tentatively it would be April 20th, 13:00 at their office at the
Grasmarkt/Marché aux Herbes. We can still move that around to adapt to your
schedule.

Two main things:
- map their data, or have their people become mappers. So a one time
operation, and a community building opportunity
- keep our data up to date, and have corrections from our side arrive to
them for checking. This is a more technical challenge. One of which I have
no idea how to do it.

Please join us if you're interested. And if you can't make it, at least
join the discussion at the dedicate trello space:
