[OSGeo-Discuss] California Chapter

[Landon Blake]

Thanks for the feedback Allan. Physical meetings can be tough with my
schedule, but David isn't too far from Stockton. :]

If we decide to get something going, I could put up a simple website and
mailing list. Still, I don't know if two people is enough to get things
moving.

While we are talking about goals, are there any pressing regional or
local GIS and/or open source needs that you can think of?

At FOSS4G I was chatting a bit with Tyler Mitchell about the possibility
of 
starting a California chapter, so that makes at least two of us. I think

there are several other folks here at UC Davis who would be interested
as 
well. I am quite open to what the goals of such a group would be, though
I 
would like to see it foster regional get-togethers.

Any other Californians here on this list?
