Greetings.

I've been running the Mapping Botswana project for the past 6 months and 
the map is in a better state there than before.

However to get more locals to participate I thought it would be prudent 
to use a .bw domain and to give them a few options you don't get on the 
default OSM website.

Currently the domain links to OSM default but 
athttp://www.openstreetmap.org.bw/index2.php 
<http://www.openstreetmap.org.bw/index2.php> you can see a sneak peek of 
where I am going with this. The location picker in the top right corner 
will hopefully be a nice feature for the locals.

The text content pages I'm still working on and greatly appreciate any 
feedback on layout and content. The goal is to get more Matswana 
(residents of Botswana) to contribute to the project and hopefully one 
day form their own local chapter.

best wishes from Iceland,
Jóhannes
