Open Source GIS Gathering in San Diego Tuesday night 6:30pm to 10pm @ SDSU

[dnrg]

No presenters have thus far stepped forward. At the
very least, it would be great for someone to give a
general overview of FOSS GIS clients, spatial
databases, and map servers.

So far, there are 30 people on the mailing list.
Please spread the word - particularly if you know of
anyone willing and able to give a survey / overview
presentation, or a presentation on PostGIS/MapServer.

Thanks very much.
