I think marking POIs in Wageningen is what I should do next. Well, after I get a bicycle mount for my Garmin GPSMAP 60CSx, then I'll do the POI stuff.

I'm having a difficult time trying to set the roads on WUR campus right. I click on a point and then find myself dragging it and screwing things up. So I revert to the original and try again... Eventually, I got all the roads I wanted to set/correct done. However, I don't know how to place those black points at road intersections. I read that those were important for routing info, etc. If anyone that is more skilled than me should maybe correct this for me. Otherwise, I'll work on trying to figure it out since I'm determined to get this area all mapped and set correctly. I feel good that at least this portion of the area/map is better than the commercial maps (aka from NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas) now--i.e. road representation is correct in OpenStreetMap (well, it will be once my contribution is merged into the OSM database).
I'm out to map all the footpaths on WUR's new campus. (WUR is Wageningen University in Wageningen, Netherlands.) I have noticed the current OpenStreetMap this region of the Netherlands is somewhat incorrect. Hopefully in the next month or so, I can clean it up.
I'm using my trusty old Garmin GPSMAP 60CSx. The mapsource on it is the OpenStreetMap of the Netherlands.
Yesterday, I've upload some tracks, but I'm not sure if I have done it correctly. I'm waiting to see if my uploads show up on the GPS Traces page.
I'm a newbie to this project, so my contributions may not be perfect for the first few.
