Hi Everyone, I plan to go to FOSS4G and am looking forward to meeting you there and learning more about what you are doing.
I put in an abstract (http://indico.epfl.ch/userAbstracts.py?confId=1) titled "Grids 1.0 beta and beyond". I have not yet had any feedback, but hopefully it is acceptable. If I get confirmation I plan to organise a presentation and flesh out the abstract. Thanks for making me aware this was happening. I hope that my work on raster data handling is of interest to some of you. Best wishes, Andy [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/a.turner -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jody Garnett Sent: 13 July 2006 22:18 To: User-friendly Desktop Internet GIS Cc: GeoTools Devel List Subject: Re: [udig-devel] FOSS4G Presentations (and who is going anyways)...

Sounds like Paul has a uDig talk covered.
