             OSGeo Developers,<br>
<br>
             At this year's code sprint in Vienna, Azavea was asked to<br>
        consider<br>
             reviving our proposal to host a code sprint in<br>
        Philadelphia.  We've<br>
             done some research on venues and have a couple of<br>
        possibilities.<br>
               I've revised our 2014 proposal and now have a 2015<br>
        proposal page<br>
             up at<br>
<br></span>
        _<a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/__Philadelphia_Code_Sprint_2015_" target="_blank">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/__<u></u>Philadelphia_Code_Sprint_2015_</a><div><div class="h5"><br>
        <<a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Philadelphia_Code_Sprint_2015_" target="_blank">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/<u></u>Philadelphia_Code_Sprint_2015_</a><u></u>><br>
<br>
<br>
             While Azavea could potentially host a smaller sprint (up to<br>
        40) in<br>
             our office, we'd like to anticipate the kind of crowd that<br>
        attended<br>
             this year's code sprint in Vienna.<br>
<br>
             I would also like to propose that we consider expanding the<br>
        scope by<br>
             inviting both OSGeo and the Eclipse Foundation's LocationTech<br>
             <<a href="http://www.locationtech.org/" target="_blank">http://www.locationtech.org/</a>> projects (JTS, uDig, GeoTrellis,<br>
<br>
             GeoMesa, Geogig, GeoJini, etc.).  There are several<br>
        developers that<br>
             work on both OSGeo and LocationTech projects, and we think this<br>
             would be an opportunity for people to work together.  That<br>
        said,<br>
             this would also likely require a larger venue and there are<br>
        likely<br>
             other considerations before pursuing this idea.<br>
<br>
             I'm interested in your feedback.  I'd like to potentially<br>
        book a<br>
             block of hotel rooms as well as settle on some dates.<br>
<br>
             Best,<br>
