Seconded.

Andy's combined traces image suggests we've got 95%-ish of the county  
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Image:Rutlandtraces.png).  
Certainly all the settlements of any size have been done. I think  
there might be a very few minor roads to fill in (have spotted one  
east of Edith Weston), the freight-only railway line will need some  
thought, and of course there's always the bridleways, but it's a  
pretty resounding achievement.

On Sunday, the banner looked superb hung next to the main road  
junction (A606/A6003) in Oakham! As for the bypass escapade, I can see  
a new "extreme OSMing" craze catching on...

Full credit to Andy who did most of the organisation - so where's our  
next Midlands event going to be?

cheers
Richard
