[Qgis-developer] Qgis lecturer/demonstrator wanted (UK)

[Baz Rowlingson]

I'm thinking of running a two-day short course on open-source geospatial
software here at Lancaster mainly directed at earth scientists. There's
three main strands: GIS, Programming, and The Web, all tied together with
info about open protocols and file formats and APIs and all that.

Now I could probably teach the whole lot but after two days I'd be dead. So
is there anyone who might be interested in teaching a session about QGIS and
then co-supervising a practical session? About an hour for each, maybe 20-30
people if we're lucky. I don't know when since I only thought this up last
week.

While I'm here if anyone would be interested in teaching the Web-based bit
I'd like to hear from you too. I'm thinking OpenLayers, a bit of Javascript
and CSS, some map service data (WFS, WMS), a bit about MapServer or
MapGuide, then another practical session so users can stick their data on
the web.

Lecturers would get expenses and a fee, plus a couple of days in Lancaster
where it's always sunny and bright. I don't think we could afford to get
anyone in from outside the UK though unless you waived your travel expenses.

Anyway, get back to me off-list if you are interested.

thanks,

Barry
