Anyone been to an OSM State of the Map conference?
Jim:
So I will have 20 minutes to talk about TM and METAL. I figure a couple minutes intro, 5-7 minutes on TM, 5-7 minutes on METAL, and then wrap up and take questions.
If you had 5-7 minutes to tell an audience of people who'd attend an OSM conference (map geeks) about TM, what would you highlight? I'm thinking:
* mention our roots from CHM
* the TM rebirth
* TM from a user's perspective
* TM data and how we gather it, relationship to OSM
* high-level overview of site update/DB/web
Also, for those who have contributed to the project over the years, I plan to show our list at the bottom of http://travelmapping.net/credits.php . If you have any objection to your name being included, please let me know.

I was told that there is a way to map your travels on OSM. I don't know details.
I would point out what's the difference - that we are focused on road systems.
Bickendan:
Jim, let me know if you need my full name for the contributors if my handle's what's listed.

Completely up to each of you how you want to be listed. My plan is to use our existing list unless anyone wishes something different, in which case I'll make a TM Contributors slide.
Jim:
TM and METAL got their introduction about an hour ago to an audience of about 25 at State of the Map US. I don't know if we'll get any users or contributors from it, but people thought it was a pretty neat project. Thanks again to all of you who make it work!
