(just can't make my mind up which forum with upvoting possible is the best low skilled platform)
I'd love to have help in contacting people and groups.
In terms of graphic design, the developers working on the map wanted g.designers around, but also things like poster creation so there will be stuff. The Positive Action platform builders have heaps of graphic design tasks lined up
Hey John, I'll be in in around 10mins if you're there.
I have long hippie blonde hair and am either smiling, or looking annoyed because I've procrastinated too much that day. Never in between.

Hi Andy,
I know Meteor so I can help with coding. I'm also working on a project to distribute power banks and means to charge them to rough sleepers so they can actually access useful web sites such as this map. I think you should take a second look at a running it as a charity. We've actually registered one and it was nowhere near 2k if you go DIY route. But if you don't want to do it we can help you with servers to host the map and adwords ( we got this Google grant ) as it's closely aligns with our goals. Being a charity does help and we don't have any pressure or red tape to speak of. What we do like is a hacker culture though :)
As for the forum, I can suggest using Slack to organize things. We can register either a separate team or I can create a channel on our Slack dedicated to the map.

There is no income requirement for the CIO. It took us about 6 months to sail through the process, but if you can get your application right the first time ( it's fairly challenging ) it could be as little as one month. In fact, getting bank account opened was a bigger challenge. By the way, Adwords grant can only be used to promote the charity and its projects.
Having a monthly event is a really interesting idea. Perhaps, we can talk about it next time you're in the Hackspace. Actually, for your map project power banks could be really handy. Meteor is quite heavy on CPU due to its client side rendering and it normally maintains connection to a server at all times. So the battery drain could be a problem. May be it would be a good idea to pre-render the map as a PDF or a JPEG file so it can be downloaded and stored locally.
