OSM is a mapping project, but sometimes people write software to do stuff with OSM. Irish Townlands is one example of this. And that code (like much in OSM) is open source (see it here), and I use Github, since it’s so popular for open source.

So I set up a Github organization for us! Here: OpenStreetMap Ireland If you’re a Github user, feel free to join (on-line, or contact me and I can add you). I’ve already transferred the townlands.ie source code there. Feel free to transfer any other projects on github there.
