Resignation in protest

Posted by DiverCTH on 11 May 2010 in English. Last updated on 8 July 2010.

Due to the WIKI edit that declares the OdBL as passed by Fait Accompli, I am deleting all of my GPX [traces and] edits in protest.

I would rather map for an explicitly closed-source project such as Google MapMaker than be seen as participating in an organization that claims to be devoted to freedom of information while simultaneously stealing from its contributors.

Driving to Ringold and back

Posted by DiverCTH on 25 June 2009 in English.

I tried rendering into my Garmin Nuvi this weekend and discovered a number of inconsistencies in north Georgia (where I'll hopefully be commuting soon).

I grabbed my handheld unit for geocaching (Garmin GPSmap 60Csx) and recorded a trace at 5 second intervals from my subdivision down the secondary roads to Ringgold, then back up I-75 to E. Brainerd.

Not sure how well a job I did in Potlatch, but I've set the trace to public if anyone wants to work on I-75 for a few exits.
