openBmap.org - Project evolution




We are looking for someone or an organization willing to get in charge of the openBmap project as we still have contributors and users.
'Getting in charge of the openBmap project' means hosting the server in charge of the raw data processing, launching the process every day, performing the database backups...

More details about the configuration necessary to host the project is available on the wiki in the global architecture paragraph

If you are interested or if you know someone that could be interested, do not hesitate to contact us for a more detailed discussion.
