That sounds like an awful lot of work. I only got into OpenStreetMap because mapping rural
footpaths was rather less stressful than arguing about the latest ArbCom dramas on
administrative noticeboards. ;-)
Seriously though, London would be a good place to have a Wikimedia maps-related technical
event. There's an active OpenStreetMap community in London and the UK, and there are
potential attendees from the commercial sector who may be able to give advice on the
various problems they've encountered and how they've fixed them (Mapbox and
Lanyrd, who both use OpenStreetMap as part of their offerings, are based in the UK).
