That's an amazing image, thanks Michael.

I take it that's the home location of all OSM contributors?

I'm surprised that India & especially China (where I thought OSM was
banned?) are covered so well, & also a bit surprised that Australia & NZ
have dropped back into the Ocean - I thought there were a few more of us
than that? - us few seem to have done a pretty good job then!

(cc'ed to AU list for interest's sake :-))

Thanks
