Do you want to Ask the #OpenStreetMap Foundation Board Anything? We're running a panel Q&A discussion at State of the Map (@SotM@twitter.com) in a few weeks.
More details here (& how to ask a Q):

@CjMalone (from the OSM Ireland Telegram group): Are they postcode centroids or polygons?

The #OpenStreetMap Foundation board (which I'm on), are thinking of adopting a new, updated guidelines on how to attribute #OSM when you use it.

The O in #OpenStreetMap is Open and our community is very open to new members, new contributors, new dabblers, new sponsors, new joiners. If you want to know more about that please read and follow the links here: https://www.openstreetmap.ie/about-osmie/ #GISchat #osmIRL #OpenSource #mapping

I created a #Rust library to read #OpenStreetMap data files (PBF, XML, OSC) initially to scratch my own itch. But it's nice that some others are apparentlying finding it and using it and sending me patches. 🙂🙂

@Som89 ACM can be regular of associate membership, you should have had a choice. You can email MWG to switch to regular membership.

The only difference is that regular members are legally members under UK law, which has some privacy implications, and can be elected to the board of directors

Bad news folks, Ireland's song Maps didn't make it through the semis of the #Eurovision Song Contest, so the finals on Saturday will be less #geo themed than it should have been.

@CjMalone I can imagine! 🙂 Qgis is pretty powerful and can do a lot. Which can lead to more complexity for simple uses. 🙂

What ever works for you

@CjMalone how are you loading osm data into qgis? You could run osm2pgsql to import osm data into a local postgresql server and point qgis at that? or load some shapefiles from geofabrik (where I work) download.geofabrik.de . If you need any help with any of that, just let me know.

I haven't used it properly, but I've heard Mapertive is supposed to be easier for that too, have you tried that?

@Doudouosm Have you seen this talk at sotm? https://2019.stateofthemap.org/sessions/DW7WW8/

It's a good point about how the OSM model isn't great for these sort of things...

@karlos Congrats! I got my first shot recenty too. 🙂🙂
