Today we launched the M(')appare Milano initiative: a series of Micro Mapping Party to complete the Milano coverage.
With the collaboration of Radio Popolare Mente Locale talk show.
Mappare means to map but m'appare means it become visible to me, so this is a word joke :)
On the next sunday we have the first micro mapping parti in Milano.
The party will be an attempt to map a very small part of the city.
A 2 hours ride to cover the entire area and to produce a detailed section of the map.
The editing part of the party will be a personal@home task.

At the end whe managed to produce a nice map (still incomplete).
A big thank to the pople from MindSolution s.r.l who hosted the party.

Yesterday evening i had a talk at a LIFOS meeting. 14 peoples attended and everybody was very interested in our project.
I will have some similar meeting in the next weeks with other Linux User Groups hoping to spread the word of OSM
Next Sunday i'll be in Mantova (Italy) to be part of a conference about wikipedia and Africa The progect, named WikiAfrica, should "africanize" Wikipedia inserting or updating information about Africa.
In the session involving my presence we will talk about migrations so maybe i could talk about mapping efforts in Africa as the african people lack maps. I hope to talk about Openstreetmap and raise some interest about our project.
