    <p>Hi Alexei,</p>
    <p>I will also be there and there will probably be some non
      technical things we could do too. I have some admin stuff related
      to OSGeo Community Project applications, I should spend some time
      on the website too, and there are probably some documentation bits
      I could introduce to people if they are interested, so lots of
      different skillsets needed!</p>
    <p>Best wishes,<br>
      Nick.<br>

                      <div>We have not yet fully worked out the details
                        but basically my idea is to run a one day event
                        with a few projects to choose from. So far we
                        have:</div>
                      <div>- GIFramework Maps (<a
href="https://github.com/Dorset-Council-UK/GIFramework-Maps"
                          target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">GitHub
                          - Dorset-Council-UK/GIFramework-Maps: A .NET
                          based web map built with OpenLayers and
                          Bootstrap</a>)</div>
                      <div>- Terra Draw (<a
href="https://github.com/JamesLMilner/terra-draw" target="_blank"
                          moz-do-not-send="true">GitHub -
                          JamesLMilner/terra-draw: A library for drawing
                          on maps that supports Mapbox, MapLibre, Google
                          Maps, OpenLayers and Leaflet out the box</a>)</div>
                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>We are hoping that those running sprints will
                        publish the goals for the day prior to the event
                        but I think the focus of the event itself will
                        be on growing the open communities. With that in
                        mind we are hoping that delegates will leave the
                        event more confident in how to develop on the
                        open source projects at the event. </div>
                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>I'm hoping that we will be able to run it so
                        you can try both projects or focus on one but I
                        haven't had a chance to agree the format yet.
                        I've got some ideas on how to achieve that goal
                        but more details will be released nearer the
                        event.</div>
                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>I attended the code sprint back at FOSS4G
                        Nottingham and it was an amazing learning
                        opportunity but I've not managed to join another
                        in the UK since as I've not been able to travel
                        to another FOSS4G and so I'm hoping this event
                        will provide a great opportunity to help grow
                        the UK open development communities by
                        supporting new and upcoming open projects as
                        well as established ones. </div>
