  1. Tell Google http://url.ie/2ero that you want their explicit permission to trace *photos* into http://osm.org/ -- and go follow @russnelson!
  2. Switching my Tweeting back to @russnelson -- if you want, follow me there, but no guarantee that I'll follow you, sorry.
  3. Thanks all for your condolences. I'll miss doing mapping parties, but I'll be glad to have my weekends back. Am pursuing several job leads
  4. @spara We need more mappers before we can try to start a community for #OSM, otherwise the community dies aborning after we leave a city.
  5. Thanks for the #followfriday, @FakeSteveC, but @SteveC isn't updating @FakeRuss anymore; nor @FakeHurricane, nor @thefakemapguy.
  6. @rweait I'm sorry, too. Cloudmade has a great team. I'll miss working with them. Sad, but necessary for maximum #OSM improvement.
  7. @spara Yes, we got laid off. Community building not up to the task. Cloudmade will work with existing groups to make #OSM better.
  8. @cageyjames The ambassador team wasn't making progress at a sufficient rate. Cloudmade needs to step it up to help #OSM sufficiently.
  9. Cloudmade laid off almost its entire ambassador staff this morning. No more mapping parties for me!
  10. Wow, #ESRIUC is crazy busy; both emma and I have been busy the whole time. http://osm.org/
  11. one last night in Amsterdam after #SOTM09, then I'm off to ESRIUC09
  12. #SOTM09 e220 for the banner! e230 to get it! Bid now!
  13. #SOTM09 Frenetic bidding for the last OpenStreetMap banner
  14. @henkhoff auctioning off the SoTM pull-up banners. e25 each.
  15. #SOTM09 definitely need a way to push OSM edits back to the data source for bulk data.
  16. @frankieroberto Nice #SOTM09 talk on history. I've used the end_date tag on railway:historical to upload my New York railbed data to OSM.
  17. #SOTM finished with the mystery speaker (search for #lazyosm); Joergen next.
  18. #lazyosm - ban tactile paving (or something like that ( I didn't quite hear it).
  19. #lazyosm @bergie: I have a design for that. Let people select a set of bounding boxes of interest; let messages be sent to lat/lon
  20. #lazyosm @rweait better open GPS hardware designed for mapping
