[Talk-in] Talk-in Digest, Vol 110, Issue 1

Fri Oct 6 05:49:14 UTC 2017

Hello Nikhil,

Glad to here about your plan. I am Saikat from Navi Mumbai and we have a
small team based on New Panvel (recently organized MESMapathon
<http://www.phcet.ac.in/photogallery/MES-Mapathon-2017.asp>). Please let me
know if you need any help with mapping using JOSM or iD editor. Our team
will be happy to be a part of your initiative.

Looking forward to hear from you.

Thanks,
Saikat
