[Talk-GB] OSM UK group - Sign up to mail lists

[Rob Nickerson]

Hi Tim,

Mailing list in the sense of talk-gb is not right here. I simply meant I
need an updated list of email addresses of people who still want to be
involved.

Currently I am using the emails provided in the survey from several months
ago (68 out of 101 respondents), tweeting and using OSM diary entries to
try to reach everyone. This is time consuming/spammy so I asked for an
updated list.

We want to get an initial working group set up and starting to share ideas.
I'm not sure where the best place to do this is. We could swamp talk-gb
with all the emails or I create a list (like team at stateofthemap.org) and we
discuss on email amongst the interested parties. Alternatively we use a
site like loomio/slack/hipchat/github to set up a discussion space. As I
only have experience with managing small groups (<10) I welcome people's
thoughts on this.

It was barely discussed during the conference call, hence very little info
in the minutes.

Best,
*Rob*
