CUGOS – Cascadia Users of Geospatial Open Source
March 20th, 2007
CUGOSians,
Hope all are well. I just wanted to send out a quick reminder that we will be having our first CUGOS meeting tomorrow (Wednesday – 03/21/07) at the Seattle LizardTech offices. We will kick things off at 5:30pm and wrap-up by 7pm. Some of us will most likely grab a beer near by after as well. Looks to be a great turnout with about 30 new people signed up!
I am really looking forward to meeting everyone and making these meetings a great venue for social interaction and learning for Open Source GIS professionals. See you all tomorrow!
Damn! Just when I leave the region and head East for greener pastures (New Jersey), after several years as a GIS analyst at Snohomish County (WA). Best of luck to CUGOS — you’ve got some terrific people showing up. I’ll be watching from a distance, cursing my luck and bad timing.
BTW, why don’t you try to infect Washington URISA (http://waurisa.org) with a FOSS GIS presentation at the upcoming conference in May, in Lynnwood?? They may still be accepting abstracts. That’d be a great venue to expose a wider audience to geospatial open source.
