<div dir="ltr">Hi Tim (Victor, Carlos and Luis)<div><div><br></div><div>My "old" request was to have an Hackfest in Spain... we (Victor, carlos Lopez and me) proposed this during the last Spanish FOSS4G event in Girona that produced two offers in the same day.</div><div><br></div><div>1) The first from the Girona usiversity to host hackmeeting during (or before or after) next X SIGTE (that is the Spanish FOSS4G event) next (usually) march... Home page of the event of the last meeting is: <a href="http://www.sigte.udg.edu/jornadassiglibre/">http://www.sigte.udg.edu/jornadassiglibre/</a></div><div>I leave Victor, carlos in CC and I add Luis Vicents that is one of the organiser of the SIGTE</div><div><br></div><div>2) The second from Gan Canaria University that produces the current Hackmeeting, thanks the fact that the spanish organiser invsted their time during Nodebo hackmeeting.</div><div><br></div><div>From my point of view, it's a good to be present during SIGTE for the next hack meeting for the following reasons:</div><div><br></div><div>points in favour:</div><div>1) Spain have some contributors and the "market" it's opening now to QGIS.</div><div>2) SIGTE is an important meeting point for all is FOSS4G in spain or peaple that peack in spanish.</div><div>3) Next SIGTE is the X anniversary :)</div><div>4) cheaper to reach thanks to Girona or Barcelona airport</div><div>5) Girona University support</div><div>6) We can have a new User Meeting after Nodebo (1 year later)</div><div><br></div><div>Points against:</div><div>1) An hackmeeting after only 5 month?</div><div>2) Again in Spain? ok... but it's and User Meeting too.</div><div><br></div><div>Just to be clear... I'm not related with any university... I'm freelancer and I leave 1000km far from Girona. Would be fine organise this here where I live, but probably I can't reach the same organization level that can offer Girona with a well organisation team, at least for also a User Meeting. For a simple Hackmeeting I can manage, but I prefer to support the SIGTE event, because it's a central meeting for people interested in FOSS4G in Spain.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">about your requests...
