Hi all,

A reminder that the deadline for submitting is **tonight**.

We already have a number of great proposals with presenters (often
from core contributors) on projects such as GRASS, GDAL, geopandas,
open streetmap, mapnik, boost.geometry and mysql. You will definitely
be in good company !

Kind Regards,
Johan
