[Spanish] [Fwd: [OSGeo-Discuss] Openstreetmap to use Geobase data]

Estas son cositas que tocan el corazon:
"The importance of this announcement is hard to over-state. The 
agreement between GeoBase and OpenStreetMap marks the contribution of 
government data from the second largest country on the planet, the 
largest country in the western hemisphere and the country with the 
longest coastline on the planet. The GeoBase data set is rich and 
diverse including the National Road Network, National Hydro Network 
(surface water), Geopolitical Boundaries, Elevation data and Satellite 
imagery. The scope of this contribution is unlikely to be surpassed in 
geographic area. "

Hi all,
I've been watching the discussions and figured this might be of interest 
to some.
The details of this announcement is on the 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GeoBase_Import

On the talk-ca discussion list, were figuring out the best way to go 
about this, a few ideas have been floated, trying to field all possible 
objections.

I'm happy to answer what I can, and welcome challenging ideas as others 
on the list can certainly help.

Look forward to discussions.
