A Reflection on the Map in Mississippi - Current Issues, Projects, and the Future | Moira, Unlike you, I like fixing and validating features in the map. I was especially interested in the cemeteries task on Maproulette last year. Cemeteries are important repositories of history. As such they should be identified and preserved. This is especially true of the slave graveyards throughout the South, especially Mississippi. I would love to do more work on cemeteries. Contact me on OSM as techlady or via email, techlady@techlady.com. Charlotte Wolter |

The Search for a Solution | Hi, Amna, What a wonderful piece. Not only do you write beautifully, but you are fearless in sharing your thoughts and feelings, enabling all of us to understand more deeply what is happening in Uganda. I don’t think you did any harm by exposing these young people to the world of mapping and computers. The more we raise their knowledge about the world, the more they will expect from the world. That is the way it should be, and they never should be satisfied with what they have now. Your insights also will help improve the services these people get, if only a little. But, little by little, you can help build a better world for them. Well done! |
