[webmap-discuss] Cross-project browser based webmapping workshop for FOSS4G

[Paul Spencer]

Cameron,

either myself or Zak James will try to attend the workshop ... I am  
involved in two other workshops and probably a presentation or two,  
but as long as the timing doesn't overlap I'll be there.  If it does  
overlap, I'll have Zak attend if he isn't otherwise involved.

Cheers

Paul
