[Talk-us] CloudMade's ambassadors

[Jim McAndrew]

I'd like to thank Russ as well!

I was a long time lurker in OSM, but never did any edits myself. I saw a PR
piece for the Boston mapping party, and thought.. Maps and Parties? Why am
I not attending that? Then I saw that there would be a meetup in New York
the next week. I borrowed my brother-in-law's GPS and I mapped Central
Park.  6 years later, I'm still doing something with OSM (almost) every day.

Thanks Russ, Dirk, Sarah, Thea, and Hurricane!
