Hi all,

I mentioned this in another thread but it may have gotten buried.

Have you ever wanted to see all local OSM groups on a map? If you're
anything like me, you have!

There are 'solutions' that don't quite work for me, like this
map<http://usergroups.openstreetmap.de/>that has been around for a
while. You need to have a wiki page and add
special template code to that page. If that sounds like too much work, you
are not alone: a lot of the North American OSM groups I know are not on
there, or the information is incomplete or outdated.

That's history now! Adding your group to this map
here<https://github.com/osmlab/localgroups/blob/master/osmgroups.geojson>is
easy as pie! *Just
follow the instructions here
<https://github.com/osmlab/localgroups/blob/master/README.md> to get your
local group on the map right now*.

What makes this map great?
* Anyone can do it in minutes.
* Use it anywhere! Either with the embed code on the readme page, or get
the geoJSON and
* Polygons!

Please forward to other lists as you see fit.
