conference.

Call for maps We invite contributions to the FOSS4G Map Gallery to build an
exciting and vibrant exhibit of the very best in mapping. This map gallery
will not only demonstrate the work of delegates but also act as a reference
point for the current state of mapping. We encourage all delegates to share
one example of their work and help us create a cartographic record of the
FOSS4G 2014 conference. Read the full call for maps

  FOSS4G turns ten! 2014 marks a decade of FOSS4G!  The tenth anniversary
is a great time to organize birds of a feather (BOFs) to reflect back and
look forward. BOFs can be organized in advance on the wiki or on the spot
during the event.  Having a bird (Her name is Helen

as a logo is a good reason to organize a BOF too!
