And remember that we have also raised £4,500 of pledges for aerial  
photography for Gaza in the past month. I am please to say that we  
finally have the charitable partnership for that one approved (as of  
today) and will soon be able to order it.

In case people are interested we are buying post-conflict photography  
for the whole Gaza Strip at 2M resolution. The license terms do  
unfortunately insist that we restrict access to the photography tand  
as a result we will only be made to make it available to a small  
group. We are proposing to make it available to the current list of  
active Gaza mappers and people who have expressed interest on the wiki  
page (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Palestine_Gaza)


Regards,



Peter
