Thank you for these postings on Sudan, please keep them coming.

I think that Sudan, with the border issues, could provide the basis for
combining OSM with collaboration tools, such as Compendium :
http://compendium.open.ac.uk The Compendium folks have already embedded
the dialogue mapping tool into a map. Although its early days for me
with OSM and developing this idea.

With Thanks,

  John
