Thanks, I just added this to my mental list of things to discuss in our sub-community: how do we track progress? In France we have figures published by the national hiking federation but it’s not clear how they obtain them and I’ve found that figures produced by each local authority or tourist office are inflated. Anyway, nobody here seems to have spent much time tracking progress so far.
This makes at least a half dozen if topics I’like to raise with you guys. Hopefully you have yours too. But with my current perception of this community Discourse I feel that creating threads would be like throwing pebbles on a beach hoping the right people find them.It is only months after it was created that I discovered this very thread, lost amongst threads in Korean and Dutch, and pointed @pyrog to it. So I believe Davey’s intention was “create the conditions in which we easily detect new topics and can work more efficiently towards consensus or action”
The trick above (setting our application parameters) may be what we need for that. If that is the case we probably need to advertise it (where?). Otherwise we need everything else we can find. Maybe even a report to the site managers to explain our difficulties? Something like “we’re the long trail mapping experts but we keep losing our way”.
