OpenStreetMap 開放街圖
A long time ago I walked the streets near my house with a colour printout from OSM and wrote down the road names. After various adventures with Gnash, Potlatch, Qt and so on I have installed version 0.11 of Merkaartor on my Fedora box. It has many rough edges, but works better and is easier to use than the other clients I tried.
I've uploaded my changes (street names plus one missing lane) and I hope to see them appear in the map soon. I'm wondering now how I can use my Blackberry handheld with OSM - it has some kind of GPS and a keyboard for typing in street names. Any suggestions?

Happy mapping,

Thanks for the tip. I haven't had much luck with Aosm; it just brings up a grey screen and gets stuck at 'searching for satellites'. (Google Maps on the same device works.)
I have signed up for gpsed but that is more for making GPS tracks. Since I live in London and most of the streets are already on the map (they just need to be named) this isn't so useful.
I may just buy a printer and continue printing out maps and writing in the street names with a pencil. Is there a mapnik-based OSM client you can run locally to generate maps of an area rather than using the website?
