Mapping Gaza

A number of us are using Open Street Maps to build up Creative Commons licensed maps, and are asking for assistance in flagging any errors / things that need doing by using the Open Street Bugs website

Whilst Open Street Maps restricts us to using open source data, it is an easy way of lay-people adding in geoinformation which can then be added to other data sources for use by relief workers.
We're doing much of the OSM work using the wiki page

If you have absolutely no idea of the layout of Gaza, and I'm guessing most won't, please either ask somebody who does or help with aid efforts in other ways. I may not be able to stop the conflict, or have much money to give to relevant charities but I can help the aid workers on the ground in some small way.
