OpenStreetMap Fast Facts
Hi
I recently joined CloudMade as a communications professional and one of the first things I did was to create a two page Fast Facts document that provides a snapshot of OpenStreetMap. I’d like to share this with you to use as you see fit.
It’s been specifically designed for press in mind, who don’t have a lot of time on their hands and want to get up to speed really quickly on what OpenStreetMap is and does. It could however, be used for a number of different purposes by the community, for example as background material for any new partners or members, for events as handouts etc. Please feel free to use the document how you wish.
If anyone has any suggestions about what they’d like to see included in the next revision, please email me and let me know. Likewise, if you’d like the InDesign source file to update the document yourself, please email me and I’ll forward it on to you.
The file name of the document refers to the date when it was created – we’ll be making sure it’s updated regularly and posted out to the community.

Nice one Paul!
It’s already linked from the OSM wiki
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Press
How about posting the source file directly to the wiki? I could probably use this for Map Kibera

Mikel, I’d love to do this but it seems the wiki won’t accept Adobe InDesign files as uploads. If you know how to do this please let me know and I’ll get it up there.
