I am unable to gauge the effort required and hence might not be
able to
comment here. If you have a plan on this activity why not start it and
people would slowly join once it starts taking shape.
I think a sprint could do it. We need a place with machines with at
least 1 gb RAM at least and good internet connectivity. If we get 5-6
people, we can divide the city up and start moving the streets. We
will have a couple of people who are experts in josm and potlatch to
guide people who are having problems. NRC-FOSS would kick in with
some funds for this if the place can be arranged. I am willing to
come to Mumbai and coordinate things. If 6 people work for 20 hours
in a sprint, we can do it.
