[foss4g2014] Newbie to FOSS4G, Oldbie to mapping

[David Mangold]

Hi Margie,

I ended up making the program map and, with much help from others, I 
think it worked out nicely. Here's a current link to the map in dropbox:

...and another from Travel Portland:

...and there's always The Google.

I think a lot of people are staying at the DoubleTree since it's near 
the convention center.

See you at the conference!

Dave
