OK, so what am I doing emailing an Open Source GIS list about a Jack Dangermond Lecture?<br><br>Well, regardless of what we may think of ESRI and their software, he is still arguably one of the most influential individuals in our field and I think that this is a great opportunity to hear a lecture from him. I believe there will also be a meet and greet after the lecture and it never hurts to have people pointing out how important standards and interoperability are to someone like Jack :-)<br>
<br>The lecture is taking place at the UMN Alumni Center at 4:30 on April 2nd.<br><br>All the details I could find are here: <a href="http://events.tc.umn.edu/event.xml?occurrence=408713">http://events.tc.umn.edu/event.xml?occurrence=408713</a><br>
