<div>Hi John,</div><div><br></div><div><div>If there is a particular project that you feel comfortable with giving a talk/tutorial/presentation, I think other people will find it useful...</div></div><div><br></div><div>I guess this all depends on what people are willing to volunteer for in GIS Day...</div>
<div><br></div><div>In my case:</div><div><br></div><div>- I would be willing to do a presentation on any OSGeo topic I think I can help with</div><div>- Work on a particular project (would have to be related to GDAL/Django/Tracking) or better yet, I need to do a windows installer <a href="https://github.com/RBURHUM/arcgis-ogr">for a particular project of mine</a>.</div>
<div>- Do a small tutorial about a particular OSGeo project</div><div><br></div><div>- Ragi</div><div><br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

*Hello,<br>
<br>
After reading Landon and Ragi?s ideas, a hybrid idea came to mind. Landon<br>
mentioned participating in:<br>
<br>
- Open Street Map mapping party.<br>
- Coordinated launch of open source GIS software tutorials/videos.<br>
- Donating some volunteer time to assist with mapping related work at<br>
a local non-profit.<br>
<br>
1) what would someone need to participate? Someone familiar the project<br>
would need to gave them both an overview of it and tell how the can join in<br>
with today?s activity.<br>
<br>
2) how long would they want to spend? Surely some would happily spend all<br>
day with one project. With all the GIS Day activities, others would come<br>
and go. Each project should think about how long someone would need to<br>
commit to help in some small way. It may make sense to repeat step one a<br>
few times during the day as fresh recruits arrive.<br>
