- less map updates, significantly more URs solved - map in Slovakia is pretty mature, numbers of users are growing nicely, fine tuning is needed... the UR+MP Tracking script is amazing. many URs are related to setting correct speedlimits, what is also cause for high number of solved URs

6th year

* january - started CCP discussions with our Ministry of Transportation (they build new centralized information system and are able to provide valuable data about planned closures or even feed with snowplows positions)
* march - Central & Eastern Europe Meetup in Prague
* april - Czech and Slovak local meetup in Valtice, Czech Republic
* october - Global champs meetup 2017 in Tel Aviv
* november - Guri and myself managed 4 new broadcasting partners in Slovakia - Trnavske radio, Radio Jemne, Radio Vlna & (my favorite) Radio Antena Rock
* november - I was presenting Waze Ads @ Trend Online Academy conference
* december - as promised during CEE Meetup, after several follow-up emails, we finally get rid of generated "range House numbers" in Slovakia (thanks to Daliah)

and some plans for the 2018:
* record the localized male voice prompts, with help of our broadcasting partners (let FB fans choose who it will be)
* organize local CZ&SK meetup in May
* finally finish CCP on-boarding with our Ministry of Transportation (things are going extremely slow so far, several personal changes on their side, it's taking long months to get their Lawyers' department to make their mind, but we are slowly advancing. At least Adam confirmed that their feed format is OK for processing at Waze's side)
