Vrijschrift.org received EUR 12.000 funding from Digitale Pioniers (sub of Kennisland) in order to get OSM started in the Netherlands. The goals that have been defined in the light of the funding are:
- Translate Nl:Map Features in Dutch
- Organise at least 10 mapping parties in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Den Haag
- 'Finish' the maps of Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Den Haag
- Jump-start a community of at least 30 regular contributors: Category: Users in the Netherlands
The duration of the project is nine months, meaning ending in December 2007.
The request for funding will be attached to this topic later.
