[Maps-l] Moving wikimaps to MediaWiki svn

[Philip Gillißen]

Hi!



I'm new to this mailing list, but quite active in the OSM
community.

I read about a possible workshop about OSM, so I'm
interested in it.

So what would this workshop be like? A wiki page
collection? A slideshow? Or would this be a "real" workshop
with "real" guys?



There are some good presentations on slideshare.net with
the topic OSM[1]
