Hey, when I my collective on the map through the Gdoc form, it does not show up on the form.

The entry is named "Hvor kragerne vender", and the address I gave was "Gødstrupvej 6, 4684 Holmegaard, Denmark"

I can pass the edit form private link to the person willing to debug this if necessary.

Hi @fuzzytern ! You're right :/. I will look into it. It's a pretty fragile script that takes addresses from a google spreadsheet and posts them to cartodb. I can probably manually update it. Your community sounds very cool! :)

Hey @jessykate, how is it going with the project as a whole? Still can't see my collective on the map, and I'd like to share this resource to friends so they also add their collectives but I don't know if it's functional whatsoever...
I see the last commit is 5 months ago. Keen to provide some help as my limited time resources allow it. I think this project is a great initiative and could proove very useful to many people.

hi again! so sorry for not sending word earlier - the status is that we're actually working with a partner on redesigning the whole website... which will include a new map implementation that sucks way less! :). however i just went in and manually updated the geocode for your listing (i think the library i'm using is having a hard time with the address format). on the plus side, i fixed several others at the same time.

i'll keep an eye out for new listings from your friends and try to make sure they show up properly.

we'll be porting over the exsiting locations to the new site and i was thinking of using a map like this: http://www.startupgenome.co/santamonica-ca-usa, which is an open source project (https://github.com/abenzer/represent-map). if the people we're working with don't end up implementing it, would love your thoughts and input on getting it going!

That sounds great @jessykate! I'll try to follow up on the activity of the
project, but don't hesitate to poke me when you get tangible outcomes or
when you need further input.
