[talk-ph] Cavite Road Network Mapping Party

[Eugene Alvin Villar]

I have created the OSM Wiki announcement page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cavite_Road_Network_Mapping_Party
And the Planning page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cavite_Road_Network_Mapping_Party/Planning

Read the planning page and see if you can help with anything! :-)
