Hi
If anyone can help with venue advice or otherwise please let me know.
OpenStreetMap (www.openstreetmap.org) - is a collaborative map of the
planet. Think wikipedia for maps. There is a lot of overlap with the F/
OSS community
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenStreetMap
We're running a mapping party on 19/20 July in Denver
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Denver
which is an event where volunteers use GPS and other things to help
complete the map. We lend you a GPS and you help add roads, road
attributes (like one ways), footpaths, post boxes or anything else you
like to the map. The map data is then released Free, like Linux or
Wikipedia. It's a fun, social atmosphere and we often go for a drink
afterwards.
Please feel free to forward this on, or contact me for more information.
Best
Steve
