[talk-ph] Meeting with waypoints.ph 20091010

[maning sambale]

Eugene and others,

Yes it will be this coming saturday.  Send me your number off-list so
I can discuss it to you.  We are still firming up the actual details.
I will inform the group as soon as I get some info.

My gameplan is to:
Present an in-depth orientation about OSM (it's principles and way of
doing things)
Progress of OSM Philippines (Mike can I borrow your sides from SOTM?)
How to use JOSM and potlatch
We can also probably discuss some Philippine oriented tagging

Any ideas?

cheers,
maning
