<div>Just a note to say thanks to Alex for the GIS/GPS talk. I was brought up loving maps (my Dad's a rambler) and I'm already in the periphery of the Open Street Map project, but it was really interesting to learn a bit more about the various technologies surrounding the subject.

<div>Also, a plug for the Rutland project. Anyone interested in getting involved with OSM would be more than welcome to join the Midlands group as they attempt to map Britain's smallest county all in one weekend. This is happening this weekend - 14th/15th October, details to be had from the OSM wiki:
