[Aust-NZ] Published: What could Open Government learn from us Open Technology folks?

[adam steer]

g’day aust-NZ OSgeo folks,

If you’re around Canberra on 26 April (this coming Thursday), join Edoardo
Neerhut (Mapillary) and myself for #geobeerCBR - we’ll meet at the Wig n'
Pen, at 6pm: https://goo.gl/maps/J7fLu1SD98D2

I look like this:

-
and will wear my orange beanie unless it gets way too warm (unlikely, it’s
Canberra…) or stick it on a table number post or something.

No formal discussion or agenda - it’s a social meet n greet with discussion
about things geospatial if that’s how it rolls. Or geopolitics, or how many
awesome flowers are blooming on the day, or which bicycle grease you prefer
for Canberra winters.... You don’t even have to like beer!

Cheers

Adam
