 I'd
 like to report that there is not one - but two articles
 about OSM in the February 2014 issue of Linux Format
 magazine (this is actually the issue on sale now, in
 February they'll be selling the March issue!). This is
 the second time I've seen an OSM article in this
 magazine - there was previously one in November 2012.
 
 
 Firstly there is a two page question and answer style
 "What on Earth is OpenStreetMap" article, and then
 there is a four page tutorial on how to contribute to
 OpenStreetMap. In addition, on the "Who we are"
 section of page 3 it asks the magazine's writers
 "what kind of map they would like to make" - such
 as a "map of all local pubs, with a comprehensive guide
 to the available snacks" and to map "the hidden
 depths of Hull".
 
 
 Available now from all good newsagents (or at
 least from WHSmith) for £6.49.
 
 Cheers,
