Frugosapalooza 2008 - Denver

February 4th, 2008 · 4 Comments · Open Source

I’ve made my reservations to visit Denver, CO to Frugosapalooza 2008 on Tuesday February 19th at Forest Room 5. Should be great hooking up with everyone in Colorado I have yet to meet yet and see some of the interesting things folks are doing with Open Source. I know Sean will be there with some sort of Python thing (what else from him right?) and Peter Batty will demo his latest project. I’m pumped to see everyone and get out of the Bermuda Triangle of GIS; Phoenix, AZ.


We’ll be sitting in a circle passing python scripts around

    James:

    Stop scaring people with the captions.

    We’ll be finalizing the dates for the other stops on FRUGOS-apalooza 2008 later this week to include–

    Boulder
    Ft. Collins
    Colorado Springs

    The preliminary feedback during the planning has been excellent, so we’re looking at some nice gatherings of folks who use Open Source everyday to make their jobs easier along with the ever-growing legion of GISers looking for ways to do more with less.

    See you there,
    Brian

    That is what I’m most excited about. Seeing how just the smallest FOSS use can improve workflows. I’m personally most interested in the PostGIS stuff. We’ve been working on a FeatureServer/OpenLayers/ArcGIS Desktop application that will probably interest many. Simple, but oh so effective.

    As for the image, I was going to have the OSGEO thong but even I didn’t need mental picture.

    Make sure to pack shoes and a jacket in your magic bus, you barefoot hippie. It’s still winter here at 5280 feet above sea level.

    Thanks for sparing us the thong: FRUGOS is not now associated with OSGEO.

    Sean there was ice on my driveway this morning. I might as well live in Colorado if I have to put up with that. :P
