> Hi everyone: as part of our ongoing collaboration with OGC, and given
> the synergy of FOSS4G projects and OGC standards, we are working with
> OGC and the Apache Software Foundation to coordinate an OSGeo/OGC/ASF
> virtual code sprint in Q1 2021 (~February 2021).
> 
> As with previous OSGeo presence at OGC Hackathons, we will document and
> report on OSGeo participation at the event.  This will provide
> value in terms of having a sense of FOSS4G projects involvement as part
> of our OGC collaboration.  This will also help coordinate involvement
> at future hackathons / code sprints at both OSGeo code sprints (i.e. perhaps
> a dedicated interoperability theme), OGC Hackathons, or related ASF events.
> 
> We are working with OGC and ASF to coordinate dates for the events, as well
> as a joint announcement to help advertise the event details in the coming weeks.
> 
> Given the synergy of FOSS4G projects and OGC standards, we kindly ask
> that projects
> consider participation in this important upcoming event.  This event with also
> will be a first between OSGeo/OGC and ASF, and provides the opportunity
> for cross-pollination with ASF geospatial projects (see [1] as an example of
> geospatial projects presented at ApacheCon 2020 as an example).
