@zool@en.osm.town @schuyler@metasocial.com this book really changed the course of my professional life! The DIY approach, while learning GIS basics..2003-2005 were exciting times for geospatial: OpenStreetMap, Google Maps, tiling, weird stuff like Locative Media & GPS Art, Neogeography, culminating in first FOSS4G 2006, Lausanne, where I met my heroes, OSGeo est. Order of events is for historians... IMHO Without NMA data hoarding OpenStreetMap would not have emerged, or maybe in a different form like INSPIRE, brr..🙏

@zool@en.osm.town yes, I realize multiple contributors. From my country Edward webmapper.net who I met, remember clearly, in 2004 at Waag, many projects together, still in touch today. Indeed, just looked at the list. Stellar!
