<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">It would be ideal to wrap up voting, next week so we can finalize the room reservations with the college. I know its difficult to commit, but the college will shutdown for US Thanksgiving,
and the end of semester craziness and then its Christmas/New Year. Heck from a business perspective there's only 4 weeks left till the New Year (at best).<br>
<br>
Really looking forward to having you all here in Daytona Beach!! <br>
<br>
Airports to look at DAB - Daytona Beach International - Connects thru Atlanta on Delta, Charolette NC on American Airlines, and JFK from Jet Blue this might help with connections ideas:

<br>
DAB is super easy in/out 5 minutes away from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, actually the college is situated off the runway for the flight school. Here are the other airports that might be cheaper on the surface, but between having to commute another
hour plus the extra time dealing with the airports...DAB is probably $200 more to fly in/out of, but you save hours of transportation time and costs. Of course if you are hitting Disney World while you are here or something, then fly out of Orlando or Sanford.
Or Kennedy Space Center which is an hour South, you could fly out of Melbourne FL or again Orlando. MCO is the main Orlando airport and probably has the "cheapest flights" because of the volume, but security takes a good bit of time, and typically you need
to check in 90 minutes early, and traffic in Orlando can build quickly.<br>
<br>
SFB is about 50 minutes South West and typically has good deals on Allegiant Airlines (no-frills) http://www.orlandosanfordairport.com/<br>
<br>
MCO is about 90 minutes West in Orlando FL<br>
<br>
JAX is about 90 minutes North in Jacksonville FL<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Steve<br>

<div dir="ltr">Thanks Steve / Daniel - and to everyone voting thus far.

</div>
<div>I have to think ahead with respect to planning (if Boundless is in position to send more people). How soon could we decide on dates?</div>

Hello, Sprinters,<br>
<br>
Following our recent discussions about possible venues for the 2017 Code Sprint, we've had some exchanges off-list with Steve Lehr to confirm the feasibility of the sprint in Daytona Beach since that was the option that seemed to trigger the most interest.
(I'm writing this on behalf of Steve Lehr)<br>
<br>
Well, we have some great news today! Steve has got confirmation from Daytona State College for a large room with great WIFI access ... The college is 5 minutes from DAB Airport, and walking distance to hotels and food, etc:<br>

https://www.openstreetmap.org/<wbr>#map=15/29.1941/-81.0615</a><br>
<br>
There are two dates to consider: Feb 7-11 or Feb 28-March 4 to avoid conflicts with the Daytona 500 Feb 26th, and Bike Week March 10-19.<br>
<br>
Oh, in return for the use of the space the college would appreciate if we could organize a ~2 hours session for students and personnel on OSGeo technologies. With the quality of the people and projects attending the sprint, I'm sure filling a two hour session
would not be a problem at all, right?<br>
<br>
The next step would be to confirm this plan and decide on the dates. Let's use a Doodle open for about a week for that, and if we have enough confirmations of interest via the Doodle survey then Steve can go ahead and confirm the reservation, etc.<br>

Thanks a lot to Steve for his hard work on this so far!<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
