Where members provide a postcode, I am moving their location a bit for 'security reasons'.

So, why haven't you indicated any interest in this idea, so far?

For anyone who is interested, PM me and I'll add you to the map if you let me know your rough location. Please see:

That's great George!

So can you kick it off in  your region?  If so, you'd be looking for 3 - 5 other people to be interested in doing the same?  Which region are you in George?

I'm happy to do the same in my region (if anyone is interested!).  Any takers (Perth, Australia!)? 

CA I am Western Australia , I'd be more than happy to hook up for a night .

I've recently added a couple more members to the map. Thank you for your interest.

One further good member has asked to be put down as anonymous, which I'm a bit reluctant to do. If you're eventually prepared to open the door of your home to 'people off the Internet' it doesn't seem too much to ask to put your member ID on a map which is not easily found. If I put a single anon, I fear we could have dozens of anons and it would spoil the map a bit. What do others think? Another option is to change the screen name to something effectively anonymous like Cory. That's not "Cory's" real name, presumably.

For anyone who is interested, PM me and I'll add you to the map if you let me know your rough location. Please see:

George,

i can understand the anon. why don't they just put down a different but close town for now.

[Cory Ander]

Does it really matter?  Provided George knows who they are and other members can see that sufficient members in their area are interested enough to make it happen (isn't this the purpose of the map?)? 

Details can surely be worked out (by George), subsequently, on a need to know basis, thereby protecting members' anonymity if that's what they so desire?

My thinking, too. I've now logged 'anonymous' from Newcastle but I still think it looks wrong. If I'm John from Exeter, there must be 1000s of John's in Exeter, so where's the risk? And if I log it as John from Torquay it makes it even less 'risky'.
