Ash Kyd's diary

Brisbane Openstreetmap Pizza Night

Just got home from the Brisbane OSM meet-up crossed with the local Twitterers' meetup, and thought I'd do the sensible thing and post a slightly drunken diary entry on OpenStreetMap. That's a logical thing to do, right?

It was a good night, in any case. David Dean organised pizzas early so by the time I arrived (and spent five or so minutes looking for everybody) the pizzas were already ready.

It was a pretty massive turnout by Brisbane OSM standards, there were seven people who actually turned up. I'm not sure if the others got lost (like I did) or just failed to show up, but though it was slightly less that I expected, it was still a great turn-out.

David did a JOSM demonstration, and there was some discussion of metadata and top secret projects.

After the place closed (at half past 8 PM) we went out and did a brief mapping expedition around the University campus before catching the ferry out to the other event.

Great to see the meetups are spreading. Is this going to be a regular monthly meetup?
