Hallo,

auf die Gefahr hin, dass ich gelyncht werde, möchte ich trotzdem auf
folgenden Wettbewerb aufmerksam machen.
Warum?

1. OSM dafür schon fast alle  Voraussetzungen erfüllt  - bis auf die
Unterstützung von IPv6 (auf Serverseite), der Ausbau auf mobiler Seite
hängt schließlich auch von ISP und Mobilfunkern ab.
2. Dies auch eine gute Werbung für OSM wäre
3. 10000 oder 1000 Euro Preisgeld auch nicht zu verachten wären.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Thomas Schäfer
