Hi,
While looking at the Etherpad report of last weekend's meeting, I noticed that you're looking to get in touch with OSM. In Romania, we have pretty close connections with the OSM volunteers and we could probably provide support on that side. Please let me know if there is something specific that WLM would need (other than having a map of the monuments)
Thanks, Strainu

It would be nice if the OSM volunteers could be motivated to also start taking photos and uploading them to Wikimedia Commons for Wiki Loves Monuments.

We have also close relationships with OSM Polska - It is been signed a formal agreement regarding cooperation two weeks ago.
Hi all,
in several countries, cooperation with open streetmap would be warmly welcome - especially where coordinates are missing! Also, they could use combinations of addresses and coordinates to improve their own data - although they might have a license compatibility issue then.
Finally like Maarten suggested the opportunity could be taken to motivate them to make photos too when they are going around anyway!
Best,
Lodewijk
