(Sorry for the delay in posting. I spent most of July 2022 on holiday in Australia)

Mapping
- Livnig in Germany, I’m used to lots being mapped. In Australia there was so much to map!
  - I got to rank #151 in Australia (🐦 🐘) just from my day to day mapping.
  - To my shame, I did use Google Maps. There was so much missing PoIs from OSM.
- A shop (which I spent a lot of money in) was selling dresses with “he/they” pronoun badge, and I wondered if clothes=women still applied 🐘 🐦. 🤣
OSMF Board
- Board Meeting, July 2022 Board Meeting
  - I had just retured from Aus, and the postponed community presentation from Mapbox Workers Union was interesting.
  - It was interesting to find out that the Mapbox management hadn’t put any direct or explicit pressure on employees to vote a certain way at OSMF Board elections
  - Lots of Mapbox based maps don’t show OSM Attribution, and it was interesting to find that the union had tried to change that internally.
- I didn’t go to the 2022-07 mid month chat because I was away in Australia (timezones!).
- I started the wiki page for the board AMA at SotM 2022
Community
- While in Sydney, I organised a last minute meet up. (annoucement twitter 🐦, fedi 🐘. I had a clever “OSM Surveyor” costume 🐦 🐘 ).
  - It was my first time properly using Every Door, and we all found it quite nice
  - It was nice to meet some of the fellow OpenStreetMap World Discord people, including a fellow mod.
CWG
- Freebies / Promotional Material Programme
  - I’ve been so bad with this lately, I’m sorry. I have requests from months ago that haven’t been sent out.
- Instagram still posting there
- Pinterest haven’t posted there as much lately.
