[Talk-ug] Typhoon Haiyan, who helped?

[Douglas Ssebaggala]

Hi all,

"All 1,161 voluntary contributors of the OpenStreetMap project for  
Typhoon Haiyan (2013), made more than 2,709,759 Map changes!",  
(Contributor names and their numbers of Map changes in parentheses)

It was a good start when we got together last Saturday, and we  
helped!! check your Contributor name on the link above.

However,  we would like to have a meet-up and work on more tasks, this  
Saturday 23rd Nov 2013. The task in Northern Cebu Island looks 80%  
complete, we could work on it, during the meet up or other tasks and  
also show how the tasking manager can be used to those who will turn up.
