Hi Matthijs

We tend not to go in for objectives, just letting folk turn up, pick an
area and map what they feel like, on the basis that this might seem
haphazard but anyway we end up with an improved map.  Armchair mapping
beforehand of building outlines is a good idea and some of us usually do
this. You'll see that I've already been active. I tend to map (and
photograph)listed buildings and I'll have my work cut out in Warwick as
just about every building in the centre seems to be listed. I've attached a
dataset if you feel like helping ;-)

Regards

Brian
