OpenStreetMap Community Playbook by ChatGPT | great stuff. I would add as subtopics 1. socialize in the wider OSM and your local context community ecosystem 2. document lessons, best practices, case studies |
|
How do I revert this fellow's change? | Sorry, you had that experience and thanks for sharing. There are also amazing kind OSMers. It is a good reminder for folks reading to be helpful and trust different knowledge. I hope you can meet them too someday. heather |

Cómo colaborar - Terremoto en Turquía, Siria y OSM | Hey I updated the task manager link - https://tasks.hotosm.org/explore?campaign=Turkey%20and%20Syria%20Earthquake%20Response%20February%202023 |

Don't miss State of the Map 2022! | Wonderful. Maybe those who will be ‘virtual’ can send reverse ‘postcards’ from our locales? Heather |

Opening up HOT Governance (help wanted) | @Pedrito1414 Thanks! @PierZen - Thanks for the question. We tried to cover those topics in the slides. The short answer is “yes”. The GWG will focus on learning about governance models that might serve HOT now and into the future. We will work with the HOT Board, staff, membership, partners/supporters, and wider community on this front. The HOT membership has been asked to get involved in HOT Strategy - see slack #votingmembers (There is the possibility of a matrix bridge if you wish to use other comms tools. ) |

Opening up HOT Governance (help wanted) | Hi O_Andras, Thanks for the comment. Organizational change and transformation is often used interchangeably /in conjunction with ‘shift’. When I use ‘shift’, I (and others) ask - are we fit for future, are we organized right, do we meet the needs, what can we improve? So for me - ‘shift’ is to explore - ‘as is’ and ‘to be’ - what is the current state and what are the options to be. Being open to explore these is the journey. Hope this clarifies, Heather |

Misuse of sac_scale in the Alps | Thanks for sharing this. I love learning about Swiss and OSM. Heather |

What HOT’s Board Needs: A Top 5 List | Thanks for this reflection, Tyler. HOT is an incredible project and network within OSM. I think all candidates and board members are aware of this important and valued place. Having a well-rounded and skilled board is important for any project. Here’s to considering that line between operational and strategic board while being a great partner, member and supporter of the larger OSM and OSMF. Heather |

Community Consultation - Etiquette Guidelines and Moderation for OSM /OSMF | @benoitDD - merci @Nordok Welcome to OSM. Thanks for this question. I’ve been involved in OSM for over a decade. My roles have included community builder, event host, mentor, working group member, governance, writer, and board member for both HOT and OSMF. My passion for the project does not sway when people continue to ask what my value is and whether I am a “mapper” or a “manager”. I guess I can say a few points:
Now, I am going to go back to focusing on the OSM community chat with presentations from around the world. I look forward to meet you in spaces like that so that we can build OSM together Happy Friday Heather |

Ein paar Worte zu den Plänen der OSMF zur Verhaltensregulierung | Thanks for your comments and this discussion. OSM, OSMF, and any ‘social ‘ /community /network has a set of ‘norms, values and cultures’. We are simply stating that the project needs to be more open, healthy and inclusive. This, thus, updates the norms, values and cultures in our moderation and etiquette. The subcommittee welcome comments to help us meet that goal. if we don’t talk about the nuances of OSM and OSMF we will continue to be stuck between a few worlds/versions. On a more personal note, OSM and OSMF will change only if we all find a way to meet each other. The space between and amoung us is fully OSM. While I don’t speak German, I really appreciate your writing in this language. Glad that DeepL can help us learn more about your views. Heather |

Now is the time - OSM and OSMF Moderation Guidance - your input requested | Wonderful, @kilkenni - It is great to have communities collaborate on this. |
|
The 2021 OSMF Survey of the OSM community has been activated | Thanks so much for this effort. I am sure we will learn much about who is OSM and OSMF, which will lead the board and community of communities to determine the ‘what’ and ‘why’ with evidence and data. Looking forward to these discussions. Heather |

Potential HOT tasking manager improvements to help new and existing contributors collaborate more effectively | HI Pete, thanks for these reflections. I have long opined that the soft skills will help OSM - negotiation, change management, communication styles, systems/complexity, and community engagement. These, of course, underpin your items, but perhaps we need to name them too. all the best, Heather |

Potlatch 3 is here! | Congratulations! |
