Hi Sun Coast LUG folks,
My name is Matt Toups and I'm a Regional Community Ambassador for
OpenStreetMap.org. Are you familiar with our project? OpenStreetMap
(OSM) works under a creative commons license and is a community built
map of your community, and the whole world.
I'm helping to organize a mapping party in Tampa on the weekend of
February 28/March 1, and I'd love to get the word out to folks in
SLUG. I think our project will be of interest to folks in the Linux
and Open Source community. Here's some info on our plans for the
weekend:

It should be a lot of fun, and a great way for both tech and non-tech
folks to work on a great opensource project together. (I've been both
a personal and professional linux devotee for many years and I've been
really excited to get involved with OSM recently)
I'd also like to be in touch about giving a talk to your group at some
point in the future, is there a regular meeting that someone from OSM
could attend?
Thanks for your time, and I hope I can meet some of you or other
members of your group during our mapping party weekend!
Matt
