Hi Everyone,

I haven't heard anything, so I thought I would throw out another email.  Do we have few people planning to attend the next meeting?  I'm planning to demo the latest version of the GeoMOOSE application and hope to get some feedback.  Anyone else want to do a short demo or tips and tricks?

Thanks,

Brian

Can someone post this?  I don't have access to post on the MapServer site.  I'm also still looking for preferences on meeting topics.  Also are people interested in ordering Pizza for the meeting?

Subject: April meeting

1) George Wright Society is having their annual conference in St. Paul April 16-20. I will be over at their conf. in the afternoon on April 17 but would be willing to haul a few folks attending the conference up to Houston Engineering for the 5pm TCMUG meeting. Can someone get the date, time, location and maps posted on the website?

2) Spring 2011, ASPRS is planning to have their annual conference in MSP, most likely in St. Paul. About 1500 people attend. Since this is in the early stages of planning, would the Mapserver community like to be part of it. This could include everything from workshops, technical sessions, tours, etc? Would it be worthwhile to have the FOSS4G folks meet up here as well?

Something to think about and discuss over beers at a later date.

Re: April meeting

I assumed we would do the normal 5:00pm time slot, but that could be
open for debate if people want a different time.

I will host the April 17 TCMUG meeting at our office in Maple Grove. I
will work on lining up a couple of presentation topics.  Does anyone
have a preference on topics they would like to see?  Here are some ideas
I threw out a couple months ago.  Please send me your preferences and
I'll see what I can come up with.

Things I would like to learn more about: 
- OpenLayers and/or MapBuilder Experiences
- David F. (python mapscript experiences)
- Google Mashups or Google Earth/KML demonstrations
- PostGIS
- MapFile creator utilities (MapStorer, AMeiN!, MapEdit, ArcGIS
extensions)
- WMS-T and tile caching
- WFS/vector rendering in the browser

Things I could show:
- OpenMNND project update
- Mosquito Control District Application Demo
- Fargo-Moorhead Flood Forecast Application demo
