[OSGeo-Discuss] Your weekly dose of FOSS4G 2013 News

2013-02-22 Thread Jo Cook
Dear All,

For those that haven't already spotted this on twitter (cue big fanfare...)
registration for FOSS4G 2013 is now open! Early Bird Closes on 31st May,
and there's a limited number of the on-site hotel rooms, so get in quick!
See http://2013.foss4g.org/registration/ for all you need to know about the
process. There are links to information about UK visas, and travel at
http://2013.foss4g.org/map/information/ and
http://2013.foss4g.org/map/travel/ but if you need any help then just give
one of the committee a shout.

The call for presentations and workshops is also open- at
http://2013.foss4g.org/programme/call-for-papers/, closing 31st March, and
our free hackathon on the 16th and 17th September is also up on eventbrite
http://hackathonfoss4g2013-es2005.eventbrite.com/?rank=1

We're just in the process of booking some really cool entertainment and
after-dinner speakers, so come on, what are you waiting for?

Jo

Hi Jo et al,

I'm curious what (if any) current thinking there is on some joint
activities with the State of the Map conference attendees. Its a bit sad
that these events are so far apart temporally yet close spatially, but I
think there will be a pretty significant overlap and it makes sense (to me
at least) to try and do some activities together. I've personally been
preparing a set of workshops that includes a set of modules on using OSM
data with FOSS4G tools and I think this kind of thing is really powerful
and something we should be explicitly promoting some how.

Hi Jeff,

We thoroughly agree with you and are trying to reach out to the SoTM
community/organisers to get some good involvement there. We'll keep the
lists posted with news when we have some.
