[OSM-talk] UK Geospatial Mash-up Event at the OS

[Andy Robinson]

Lets hope it works out Nick. Your participation would be great. I'm very
tempted to make the effort myself. I would see this as one of the key event
types for OSM to target. We would be preaching to the yet-to-be-converted
which has to be an ideal scenario.

We could do with as many OSM big guns as possible, ie those that aren’t
afraid to stand up and argue the finer points of data, licensing and
politics all in the same breath ;-)

This is clearly an event for those delivering data to encourage those that
build on top of it to do a lot more. We are a player in that delivery market
and we need to stir the hornets nest a little more aggressively with these
folks than we do right now.

Cheers

Andy
