Progress note

Things are looking good for OSM in Brazil. I have seen that after a few imports, and increased availability of hi-res imagery (thanks to Bing), a new group of people are taking an interest into contributing. I see two types of these:
1) Those who trace Bing near where they live
2) Those who put in POI where streets already have been traced.

For this reason I think I can concentrate on my near area of Guarapari, as Vitoria is close to complete (in concerns of tracing) and the surrounding cities of Serra, Cariacica and Vila Velha seems to be traced of people in group 1.

I have most of the streets (all?) in Guarapari traced, though only a few key streets and some of the streets surrounding my residence have been named. I think the next step for me will be to print sheets of walking papers, and try to get these names down. Guarapari is somewhat large, so this will still take time (anybody visiting are free to assist). Further I will try to trace important buildings (and later buildings in general) and to include as many POI I can both from memory (i.e. POI I use regularly) and from observation (walking paper again?)

The next two weeks will hold me up pretty much at work, and I doubt I will have time or energy for much OSM work, neither tracing nor wiki, as I am doing a G20 crane course parallel with my work duties. The few hours I have left will be with priority of rest. I hope things return to normal after the trainings have been done.

I have found an app that should let me add POI on my iPad (though havn't been able to do anything useful with it yet. I am still looking for a good offline OSM map for the iPad (and a GPS that allows me to use it in full). Sadly I havn't been able to find any proper editors for iPad. Currently my iPad covers all my needs except for OSM.
