Shoaib,
I think you have organised a street mapping party in the past? Maybe you 
would be interested in organising one.

How long would a street mapping party take? The foss4g program is 
already chock full, so I'm not sure how we would fit it in. Maybe we 
could have the party on the Monday evening before FOSS4G workshops?
