We in Russia have a weekly podcast recorded live: OSM Radio (looks like RadioOSM, I know). Every Thursday we go online, discuss OpenStreetMap news and interview guests, either from OSM community or from OSM-related companies (Sputnik, Maps.me, OsmAnd, NextGIS etc).
The next broadcast will be on the 1st of January. Because of the holiday, that won’t be an ordinary podcast, but an “open mic” event. From 17:00 to 21:00 UTC we’ll be receiving calls from OSM members (and making calls ourselves), and will ask three questions:
- What was the most cool or satisfying thing you did in OSM last year?
- What was the biggest event for you in OSM in 2014?
- What do you expect of OpenStreetMap in 2015?
On that evening we expect to bring the community together and to make them hear each other, to really feel like a group united by the common goal. And I think it would be great to have English-speaking OSM members on air as well. Probably in the second half of the program. We are open till the last visitor, so if there are many osmers, we’ll finish later. If you want to participate, call me by skype (zverikk) on the 1st after 19:00 UTC, or mail me (ilya@zverev.info) your skype id, so I will call you myself. Mumble server is also available, mail me for its address. Let’s make it an event to remember.
