[OSM-talk-be] a new National Mapathon - call for volunteers

[Jo]

I already confirmed to the organiser at KU Leuven, that I'll help out there.

I wouldn't mind extra help, of course!

I'll also figure out whether it's possible to boot the computers in the
class rooms with USB sticks so we can use Linux on them. My preference is
to explain JOSM to the participants. This worked very well last time.

Cheers,

Polyglot
