[Qgis-developer] Coordination of Hackfest with FOSS4G

[Saber Razmjooei]

Let me talk to FOSS4G organiser to see if we can use their facilities for
those 2 days. Also, I need to shuffle the dates with Sussex University.
There might be a problem as it will be the start of the term and the uni
will be very busy.
How about:
 - Starting on 13 Sept (Friday afternoon) in Brighton - 
 - Moving to Nottingham on 16 Sept: so that people who are not attending
FOSS4G will be around for at least 2 full days.
 - 17 and 18 Sept continuation of the HF  in Nottingham

If it is sensible to you folks, I can start re-arranging the plan?

Cheers
Saber

I suggest to use the FOSS4G infrastructure for the 2 days. An additional
advantage would be the possibility to attend a workshop and the contact to
other OSGeo projects. I saw at least one UMN Mapserver contributor in the
hackathon attendance list.
