[QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-developer] FOSS4G Boston QGIS presentation?

Mon May 1 03:41:22 PDT 2017

Hi,

Apologies for the delay in my reply. The talk was accepted for FOSS4G 2017
Boston, and Kurt / myself will be co-presenting.

The "State of QGIS" talk abstract is attached. I will be bringing this
topic up with the community to gather contributor feedback on overall
content and direction, since the talk should represent community viewpoints
and cover topics the community thinks it should.

Regards,

Larry Shaffer
Dakota Cartography
Black Hills, South Dakota
