[Belgium] [OSM-talk-be] OSM + OsGeo

[Maelle Vercauteren]

Thanks Joost for you email and Jonathan for your enthusiasm ! :-)

I support your two propositions and we will certainly speak about these
during the AG (and/or the OSGeodevEvening). By the way if some of you are
free, they are more than welcome: it will be this Wednesday March 29th at
17:30 (building D, room DC6.126,.Campus Solbosch, Université libre de
Bruxelles Avenue Franklin D. Roosevelt 50 - 1050 Bruxelles).

Cheers and I am pleased to strengthen our collaboration,
Maë//e

> very userfriendly, but still quite powerful. I think it would be an
> excellent thing to do together, because we could recruit people that tend
> more towards data-collection for OpenStreetMap Belgium and those that are
> more interested in open source software for OsGeo.
>
> Also, I think it would be very fun to do.

> Because it is within the scope of the Maptime project, we could get Free
> Pizza (sponsored by Carto, former CartoDB). Who doesn't like free pizza?
>
> Anyway, share your thoughts, and efforts :)
