The downsides of being frugal.

The #OpenStreetMap Foundation spends, even with a slightly more ambitious budget this year than previously, less than %1 of what WMF/Wikipedia does, but is struggling to make ends meet.

There is no threat a la the infamous Wikipedia ads that the project will shut down, but without the funds activities will have to be cut back significantly.

@simon I love OSM, and I searched again to create my own tiles, found this: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/FR:Creating_your_own_tiles why is that article both french and english? I can talk both but it's weird.

@kiki_mwai_mwai @simon I guess that page hasn't been fully translated. It looks like it was probably copied from an English source, and translation begun but not finished. If you're up for it, I'd say go ahead and translate the remaining bits!
