  33 <p>Here is a small update for my English readers.  Most of my blog
  34 posts have been in Norwegian the last few weeks, so here is a short
  35 update in English.</p>
  36
  37 <p>The kids still keep me too busy to get much free software work
  38 done, but I did manage to organise a project to get a Norwegian port
  39 of the British service
  40 <a href="http://www.fixmystreet.com/">FixMyStreet</a> up and running,
  41 and it has been running for a month now.  The entire project has been
  42 organised by me and two others.  Around Christmas we gathered sponsors
  43 to fund the development work.  In January I drafted a contract with
  44 <a href="http://www.mysociety.org/">mySociety</a> on what to develop,
  45 and in February the development took place.  Most of it involved
  46 converting the source to use GPS coordinates instead of British
  47 easting/northing, and the resulting code should be a lot easier to get
  48 running in any country by now.  The Norwegian
  49 <a href="http://www.fiksgatami.no/">FiksGataMi</a> is using
  50 <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/">OpenStreetmap</a> as the map
  51 source and the source for administrative borders in Norway, and
  52 support for this had to be added/fixed.</p>
  53
  54 <p>The Norwegian version went live March 3th, and we spent the weekend
  55 polishing the system before we announced it March 7th.  The system is
  56 running on a KVM instance of Debian/Squeeze, and has seen almost 3000
  57 problem reports in a few weeks.  Soon we hope to announce the Android
  58 and iPhone versions making it even easier to report problems with the
  59 public infrastructure.</p>
  60
  61 <p>Perhaps something to consider for those of you in countries without
  62 such service?</p>
