Harry Wood created a wiki page for the GAW and I put in my work in progress to organize an OSM event on GIS day at the University of Utah. After tomorrow when I will sit down and talk with the UofU geography department people, I will be able to be more specific about the date and the type of event. I will keep you posted.
