Hello everyone,

A reminder that the South Hampshire mapping party is happening this 
weekend (14th/15th), details at

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/South_Hampshire_Mapping_Party_09

South Hampshire is currently one of the best-mapped areas outside London 
in the UK, and in particular has very good footpath coverage. However 
there is one big problem. Many of the streets in Portsmouth and Fareham 
have been traced from Yahoo!, and are therefore nameless. So do come along 
and help collect the street names in Portsmouth and Fareham (also Havant 
if we have time) and help complete the map of the Solent area. Once this 
is done we will have good map coverage of the entire south Hampshire area.

Meeting point the Isambard Kingdom Brunel, central Portsmouth, details on 
the wiki page.

Nick
