[talk-ph] Mapping Party in Iloilo May 23, 2015

[Erwin Olario]

Happy to hear you got a chance to use the freshly baked goods. :))

I hope you got a chance to promote the community-maintained version of
OsmAnd[0] available via F-Droid[1]. The ten-map-downloads limitation could
get annoying. :/

I agree with you about OsmAnd's having *too many* features - but I'm not
complaining. The good news is that the new UI is way better than the old
one, and more intuitive.

Cheers,
