[Foss4g2013] Your weekly dose of FOSS4G 2013 News

[Jeffrey Johnson]

Hi Jo et al,

I'm curious what (if any) current thinking there is on some joint
activities with the State of the Map conference attendees. Its a bit sad
that these events are so far apart temporally yet close spatially, but I
think there will be a pretty significant overlap and it makes sense (to me
at least) to try and do some activities together. I've personally been
preparing a set of workshops that includes a set of modules on using OSM
data with FOSS4G tools and I think this kind of thing is really powerful
and something we should be explicitly promoting some how.
