Greetings Tim
Sounds like a great new project.
Where are your current folk located?
So far Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart and I think some from Canberra
and Brisbane though we haven't got to the point of working that out for
sure yet.
Perhaps there could be an opportunity for a table or participation at an
upcoming event just to break the ice.
The linux conf coming up in Sydney has all sorts of groups and activities going
on including an open day which may be a good starting place.

Any Aust OSGeo's going to lca who whould like to hold a bof?
Unfortunately I can't be there :-(
I am sure that any of the LUGs would be interested to have some GeoFOSSers
along, and the BarCamp events are basically all kinds of tech hands on.

Sounds good. Anyone want to do GeoFOSS at a barcamp in March
(Melbourne, Adelaide or Sydney)? I'll be up for it in Perth when there
is an event.
Post the GeoFOSS events to local lug or the AU list as well so that any of us
who are interested in Geo tech can come along too.
Will do.
Cheers from here
Janet
