[Polimi]

I Agree, but prefer to say before the birth of GRASS. What is ESRI ? ;-)

> Hello everyone,
> 
> I'd like to pose an idea to the OSGeo-ICA-ISPRS community: a "GeoForAll Sprint" event.  The goal of the event would be to get the OSGeo, and ICA, and ISPRS communities together over a few days to work together on developing Open curriculum materials.  What do you think??
> 
> Those of you familiar with code sprints, know them as getting developers from around the world to work together, usually in a big room with good wifi, and working on OSGeo software projects.
> 
> Now, the GeoForAll Sprint would be a little different, as code may not be written for the OSGeo projects, but materials would be developed that could be used by the project communities, and educators.
> 
> If you choose to do this, there are already steps available if you want to request for funding to the OSGeo Board for a sprint (see the steps at http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Code_Sprint_Guidelines).
> 
> I wonder if someone in GeoForAll would like to take this on and champion it.  If so, it could be a great event for the 3 communities.
