[OSM-talk] A possible way to promote OSM

[Mike N.]

I was thinking this also - I was going to send an email to the local faculty 
who are responsible for the GIS curriculum at each local school, and also 
offer to speak or help get students started (first edit sessions can be 
frustrating).  It's important to keep the mail as low key and let the 
faculty decide if it's worth a mention in class or as an extra credit 
project.
