<p class="MsoNormal">Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
I'm emailing to follow on from our last OSGeo Ireland meetup online hosted by OpenApp.ie. I've included a few people in CC as I'm not sure if everyone is on the list.<br>
<br>
At the last meeting we agreed that it is time for us to have a Face2Face meet up soon.<br>
<br>
Rather than create a Doodle Poll with lots of dates and times which don't work - perhaps we could have a short discussion on the mailing list here about where and when the best time would be? After this we could create a Doodle Poll.<br>
<br>
The guys at OpenApp said that they would be happy to host in their offices in central Dublin. While this won't suit everyone logistically their offices are very accessible via public transportation.<br>
<br>
Myself and Daniel McInerney have spoken about this meetup a few times.<br>
<br>
We think that it should be informal, a couple of hours long, maybe include 5 minute flash presentations from participants so that everyone can see what people are interested in/currently doing/currently wanting to do in the OSGeo world.<br>
<br>
The initial goal we should be working towards is a one day OSGeo Ireland event (presentations, networking, invited speaker (maybe)) THIS YEAR. At the meetup we could also discuss the possibility of bringing something bigger such as FOSS4G 2017 Europe to Ireland.
FOSS4G 2017 Global is not in Europe so there is an opportunity to reproduce FOSS4G 2015 Como here. Myself and Daniel would be willing to be the leaders of this.<br>
<br>
So let's have some opinions and views about a meeting in April or May 2016. Then we can create a poll of the popular options and go from there.<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
<br>
Peter<o:p></o:p></p>
