<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Thanks Phillip, Kurt. The efforts you put in for developing these excellent set of resources have provided us strong foundation that we all can make use of and build upon.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For the GeoforAll sprints in South Africa and also at FOSS4G regional conferences in 2016 (it is good timing as Ela is already working for Bonn Geo4Allevent), we will now start planning series of sprint events for expanding and keeping this updated. In
 fact, we will invite the wider geocommunity to also contribute to the sprint efforts.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All who wish to contribute/participate in the SA Sprint event (both in person and remotely) , please inform Bridget Fleming  <span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "> Email - </span><span tabindex="-1" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; "><span _dn="Bridget Fleming" _em="bridget@afrispatial.co.za" _sa="bridget@afrispatial.co.za" _al_rt="SMTP" _ao="3" _id_rf="0" _ei="0" _uri_mo="" title="bridget@afrispatial.co.za" class="rwRR" _acu="1" tabindex="-1" id="spnR" style="color: rgb(64, 140, 217); text-decoration: underline; cursor: pointer; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); ">bridget@afrispatial.co.za</span></span></div>
