WhereCamp5280

[Peter Batty]

Hi All,

There will be a fun, cool, educational and FREE geospatial event at
Denver University (DU) on August 14-15 – WhereCamp5280. If you’re
already familiar with WhereCamp, you probably don’t need any more
persuading to come along. The event is being organized by Eric Wolf,
me, Ben Tuttle, and anyone else who would like to help out! For those
not familiar with WhereCamp, it’s an “unconference” on the subject of
location, mapping and things "geo". An unconference is basically an
informal conference which is organized on the fly by the participants
- like the one FRUGOS held a couple of years ago. This event is not
constrained to open source, but I expect there to be a strong open
source element (this depends on the participants of course!).

For more information, see the Google group at http://groups.google.com/group/wherecamp5280
and Peter's blog at http://geothought.blogspot.com/2009/07/wherecamp5280-cool-event-coming-up-in.html.

I encourage you to sign up and to add ideas for talks.

Cheers,
Peter.
