* '' '''[[osm:State_of_the_Map|State of the Map]] (SotM)''' is the annual, international conference of OpenStreetMap, organised by the OpenStreetMap Foundation. “State of the Map” belongs to the OpenStreeMap marks ([[Trademark_Policy|Trademark policy of the OpenStreetMap Foundation]]). In order to use the OSMF marks for a conference, specifically the "State of the Map" and "SOTM" marks (e.g. call the conference State of the Map Asia, SotM-Africa, SotM-US and others), the organisers have to apply for a [[SOTM_Quick_Licence|State of the Map quick licence]] (to be sent to trad<nowiki>emarks@osmfounda</nowiki>tion.org).''
* ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT LGBTQ] stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer/questioning.''
 
Question by Amanda McCann (board member): ''"Should the OpenStreetMap Foundation change its [[Trademark_Policy|trademark policy]] so that [[osm:State_of_the_Map|State of the Map]] events can't be held in places where it's illegal to be gay if that event covers a place where that's legal?"''
