It would be really cool tweak some of the Mapbuilder demos to use the official FOSS4G data.
Who can help out with this?

What is available now won't be the same as what's available at the conference. After all, maybe _you_ are part of the process of making more of the data available ;-) http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/FOSS4G2007_IntegrationShowcase Bob Basques wrote: > This would be prefereable, but I wasn't getting that vibe from these > emails. > > bobb > > > > Tyler Mitchell (OSGeo) wrote: >> Isn't part of the idea that the db can be hit live during the event - >> or was that a pipe dream? -- Dave Patton Degree Confluence Project: Canadian Coordinator Technical Coordinator http://www.confluence.org/ FOSS4G2007: Workshop Committee Conference Committee http://www.foss4g2007.org/ Personal website: Maps, GPS, etc. http://members.shaw.ca/davepatton/ _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss -- Cameron Shorter Systems Architect, http://lisasoft.com.au Tel: +61 (0)2 8570 5050 Mob: +61 (0)419 142 254 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
