Here's an idea:
OSM-PH Christmas-Mapping Party
When: a Saturday in early December (let's pick the one where most people are
available)
Where: Cubao-Project 4 area (the area bounded by EDSA, Aurora, Katipunan and
Serrano: http://osm.org/go/4zhSbbzg-- )
What: Walking-Papers-type mapping (no GPS required) then a light dinner (at
Gateway?), like the one that happened back in March
Who: OSM contributors (no need to target newbies for now, but they are
welcome of course)
We don't have to go all out. Just a simple activity with fellow OSM
contributors. :-)
What do you guys think?
