OpenStreetMap.in Community made maps, for Indians. Closed Thu 1 May 2014 2:37PM
This was something which was proposed by Arun Ganesh way back in 2013 , this was not made public and was just cirulated among few people .

It is rather late. It should have happen a lot time earlier.

About time, especially since OSM is gaining traction in India.

I agree on principle, but don’t think Loomio is the correct forum for such discussions / voting.

I am ok either way since its a collective decision , would like to see all those voices heard and individual commitments and technical issues we can face while on such a project.

Can we change "for Indians" to "for India"? That is: "Community Made Maps, for India".
Also, agree with Ishan that perhaps we should do this over the OSM India mailing list. Lazy consensus should be appropriate for taking decisions.

until there is some technical consensus on how to deal with the issue of "forking" main OSM data and where new updates will go and how they will be synced with main OSM, I think it maybe dangerous to go ahead with an instance.

I generally agree that this is a good idea, and we should do this.
I foresee some technical difficulties, but they can be solved;

I believe the forking issue I had raised is satisfactorily resolved, so I remove my block on this.

Looking at the progress and people involvement so far on the mailing list and here this looks like a feasible project.
