[Rajeev Amatya]

Hello everybody,

We will be conducting our first hands-on mapping party open to the public
for those who are interested in helping in creating a better map for Nepal.
The only requirement will be to have either a laptop or an android-enabled
smartphone. You will need no prior knowledge of OSM and by the end of the
day we will have a much improved map of the community! Please forward this
to interested people as well.

Date and Time: Saturday, September 29, 2012, 9:00 am until 4:00 pm
Venue: YoungInnovations Pvt. Limited, Ekantakuna, Lalitpur
