- What is the reason for the law — is it connected with resisting
Kurdish separatism (by taking control of mapped boundaries)?
- Do you think the government will try to exercise any control over
non-Turkish contributors to OSM map data within Turkey?
- [Anyone] What are the best English-language sources (press,
academic, etc.) to read about this?
- How can those of us outside Turkey support you?
Comments
