[talk-ph] Cavite Road Network Mapping Party

[maning sambale]

We have 23 towns/cities to cover, most are routable already from
Intramuros. The link below is my town_routing spreadsheet.  Don't
follow the yournavigation link, the service is broken for more than
two weeks already.

Anyway, the challenged is to make each town route to every Cavite
town.  I suggest in order to plan it better, we need to properly
locate the place=town node.  After that, we can plan an assigned route
to those attending to trace several towns.

Other ideas:
 - We need to compute for gas consumption and hopefully a gas sponsor!
 - Is there a way to make it more fun? Like geocaching or some local
history to look into while passing through each town?
 - Look for LGU contacts.
