And while we are on the topic of updates: just updated the #openstreetmap stats here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Stats#Contributor_statistics_reports seems as if March 2021 with over 54'000 active contributors broke the previous record of 53'000 from January 2017

i don't get paid enough to have to figure this out

if one said “annual general meeting” that would (sorta) imply a meeting you could only have once a year (right?).

But if we just say ”general meeting”, then that covers other types of general meetings

people are going to presume a nefarious motive, aren't they

#xp

Never fear legal nerds, I have figured out how quickly the #OSMF can hold a General Meeting.

§307 says 14 days are the fastest one could do it (right?)

Don't worry nothing nefarious, I'm just curious what we can put in a contract. #xp

I joked about this to a fellow #OSMF Board member. He pointed out that no-one ever told him it would be fun. 🤣 #xp

Join the #OpenStreetMap Foundation Board, they said.
It'll be fun, they said.

You get to spend your Sundays reading the 1,200 page PDF of the UK Companies Act.

The #OpenStreetMap mappers have correctly mapped (in #OSM) where the #EverGiven ship is stuck in the #Suez canal.

#xp @OpenStreetMap

(The #OpenStreetMap rule of thumb is to not map things that will only be there for less than a month)

#EverGiven, the ship that is blocking the #Suez Canal has already been mapped into #OpenStreetMap

#OSM people seem to think it'll be there for a while. 🤣
