<p class="MsoPlainText">I am starting to plan the next QGIS user group meeting and wanted to gauge reaction to a date in the last week of March/first week of April or after the April school holidays (week beginning 20th April).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">If there are no objections to having it in Edinburgh again then I'll check availability of the EDINA facilities.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Also, after feedback from the last event I'd like to have a parallel stream to QGIS where you can hear about PostgreSQL/PostGIS and other FOSS4G goodness. Also, some hands-on workshops on QGIS, PostGIS or Python.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">So, if you would like to volunteer your organisational skills to help me make it another great day out in Edinburgh please let me know. If you would like to do a talk, present a poster of some work you've done, show off a map you made
using FOSS4G or want to dive in and run an interactive workshop then let me know.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">I have already some offers of sponsorship for the day so we should be able to provide an informative, entertaining and interactive event for the users by the users.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Cheers<o:p></o:p></p>
