[OSM-Talk-ZA] New IRC chat channel + Forum

[Grant Slater]

Talk-ZA,

There is a new IRC (chat) channel for OpenStreetMap South Africa.

http://irc.openstreetmap.org/ channel is #osm-za (irc.OFTC.net network)

For anyone not familiar with IRC... it is a live interactive group
chat, anyone can join in at any time and ask questions or discuss
relevant topics in realtime.
The main "#osm" channel has over 230 people in the channel, thankfully
not everyone discusses things at once. The channel is sometimes quiet
for a few hours, but is always ready for questions.

The new #osm-za is channel is still very quiet for the moment. New
South African editors/mappers are announced in the channel by an
automated bot as soon as they make their first edit.

There is also a South African section coming to
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/ soon.

Regards
 Grant
