Hi all
Wikimedia Germany has decided to help the OpenStreetMap community, and one part of this help is providing a place to play with OpenStreetMap-replated projects on the Toolserver cluster. The policy https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Rules has been changed to reflect this. Section 2 now reads:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Use of the toolservers must be related to a designated affiliate project (see below). This rule will be strictly enforced as violations are an abuse of donated resources. If you are at all unsure if something you want to do is appropriate, contact ts-admins first.
1. Designated affiliate projects of the toolserver are currently 1) The Wikimedia Foundation and any of its projects and 2) OpenStreetMap and any of its projects 2. The use of specific resources like databases or login servers may be reserved for use with specific projects. For instance, some resources may be set asside for use for OpenStzreetMap-related projects. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you want to start playing with OSM stuff, please be patient for a few more weeks. Hardware has been ordered (more about that later).
