Thanks to everyone who showed up at last night’s OpenStreetMap 20th birthday party! It was great to see regulars, old friends, and some newcomers too. Like OSM, the cake looked plain at first, but it turned out to be exquisite once we were through with it. 😋

We held a mini mapathon to add affordable housing complexes from the City of San José’s housing portal. Kudos to our mappers for helping us represent more of what matters in our community.

Hope to see you all again soon at an upcoming #SouthBayMapNight or #HackNight!

We’re calling off this Tuesday’s usual #SouthBayMapNight, in order to prepare for an extra-special get-together on Thursday night to celebrate OpenStreetMap’s 20th birthday! Come out to #OpenSanJose #DTSJ and help us map a bit of San José in person!

“First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you.”
—Nicholas Klein, labor union advocate

I’m a long enough #OpenStreetMap mapper (17 years!) to have seen #TomTom go through practically all four stages (minus the actual wanting to burn part 🔥).

It is a joy to discover remote paths with nobody on sight.

The Doggett's pub (Today's #20YearsOfOSM birthday pub from noon onwards) is behind this big funny shaped One Blackfriars Tower. Shown here in @organicmaps

It has a little beer garden out to the South but I'm not sure I've been there since the tower was built. Maybe it's a bit overshadowed these days!
