[OSM-talk] Developing Countries Address Problem

[bibekshrestha at gmail.com]

The mail raises an interesting issue. For developing nations like Nepal,
waiting for local administration to start mapping and give names to the
streets take quite a long time.

I would be interested to know if someone has an alternative solution that
is modern enough (digital) independent of local administration and easier
to do with a click of a button - online.
