[Aust-NZ] Brisbane Location suggested

Count me in !

 

There may be other people who attended the Brisbane FOSS4G “interest group” last year who may be interested as well.

Anyone…???

 

Cheers,

Shaun

I have received the suggestion of "the edge" for a brisbane osgeo meet up - it is next to the main state library with a focus on digital media. Since open source is the ultimate digital media I will make an inquiry to see if it is suitable.

	Sounds good. My impression with these thing is you need to start small and be consistent. The bulk of people wait to hear back on how the first couple sessions go. 

	 

	I may actually be fun to do a non-install fest. Since we have a nice 'live' DVD / USB We could try out the software and talk shop without having people worry about cleaning up their machine after. 

	 

	Cheers,

	Jody

		Hi Jody,

		 

		I would be keen for a gathering in Brisbane, code sprint or other.  There seems to be a bit of activity down in Vic for OsGeo stuff but not much movement in Qld.  Would be good to see something started.

		Thanks for making this go Simone; grass roots events are exactly what local chapters are supposed to be about. 

		 

		Can I ask how you found space? I would love to have a gathering is Brisbane (or even a code sprint) but am always held back by the financial hurdle of finding a venue. In Canada we always had a local company provide room; but in Australia insurance considerations seem to get in the way.
