10 years ago the global #OpenStreetMap conference took place in a developing world country (Buenos Aires, Argentina), and a European one in Karlsruhe, Germany.
One had same-sex marriage, and progressive trans* gender identity law. The other… was looking old fashioned even then.
The arc of history bends towards justice, and things have changed!
Germany now same-sex marriage (since '17) & a dignified gender id law will come in later this year.
Last week I was due to give a presentation on openstreetmap-website development at the State of the Map Europe conference in Łódź
Unfortunately I got ill on the morning of the second day!
So I've made a home recording of my presentation. Although it's a poor substitute for doing it live, I hope it's still interesting to watch:
"What's New With Our Website"
As it says at the end, comments and questions are welcome!
At #SotMEU @zverik presented #GeoScribble as a digital replacement for Walking Papers/Field Papers. I should try this out.

Do you want a slice of #OpenStreetMap Birthday Cake?
We have an #OpenStreetMap birthday cake at #SotMEU although there is still time left until the birthday in August.
@sotmeu
If you're in Łódź for #sotmeu, check out my talk at noon on chasing the #neogeography dream, which is a fancy way of saying: it is still too hard to make a map

Unfortunately I can't attend the rest of the #sotmeu conference this weekend
I was really looking forward to giving my presentation this afternoon, so the timing is terrible!
I'll post the slides later and I'll try to make a recording to complement them at some point.

Inspired by the #SOTMEU talk on Sentinel 2 I finally found a way improve the location of this factory in rural Ghana https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/10157516964
I am looking for new imagery to improve the location for 5 years now https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/817922065/history
