For mappers and course setters the countdown has started

Still 15 more months to go until WMOC 2012. But the countdown has already started for all mappers and course setters. After the snowmelt the group got together for the first time to discuss more details: How will the competition centers be set up? What is the ideal location for the start? What are the characteristics of each running area? Which details do the mappers refer to the course setters? Which requirements are given to the mappers by the course setters?

All persons involved talked about these issues on site at each running ara. Now everyone is going back to his own domain to finish the first maps or set first courses until summer 2011. A year before the WMOC 2012 starts tests under actual conditions will show if the strategy so far made sense or if there is a backlog.
