Agreed. Anyone interested in #language, #linguistics, #maps or #Aboriginal heritage can and should contribute local #placenames to @openstreetmap. It's a great repository for local, indigenous expertise. @cartdeco1 @nativemaps #toponymy

would like to see a data viz of grumpy emails by day pls
A quick coding of grumpy email replies over the past year seems to indicate that I shouldn't consult with people in Sept. or Jan. because start of term busy, in Dec. or Apr. because exams/marking, in Summer, because away, or, on Fridays. So with stats, 61 out of 365 days are ok.

this is such a great thread.
bummed that Margaret wasn't acknowledged as the amazing cartographer for this map... 🤔 (also stoked to see her work in the wild...)
We’re talking about territorial acknowledgements on an upcoming episode. Are they important? What do they accomplish?
