OpenStreetMap contains hundreds of places of worship in it for Birmingham, as can be seen from this Birmingham Faith Map I just made in the past hour or so whilst watching Children In Need: http://www.dracos.co.uk/scribblings/faith-map/ (it has a couple of thousand pins, so might take a short while to load).
It would be great if the data collected as part of this project could be added to OpenStreetMap, if OpenStreetMap is missing any of it, so that everyone can benefit. Can the data behind this map be released?
