I respectfully disagree Mike.  If mappers don't see any value in such
an org, then why should we bother?  Data donations, publicity is
important to expand OSM-PH.  However, I believe the core of this
project is the community (mappers), supporting (not competing) with
local efforts of mappers should be the prime goal.  Perhaps a
misunderstood your statement.


> so I kinda hope you do!
I hope so too.  This has been our goal since we met in Manila years ago.
