[Talk-us] Venues for State of the Map US and International Conferences

[Ian Dees]

Hi again,

I just finished copying the Denver SOTM.US bid page to a page specifically
for an international SOTM bid. I made some minor changes but most notably it
does not mention the possible spatial and temporal proximity to FOSS4G.

Is there anyone from Denver out there willing to flesh this page out? At
least fill yourselves in as being part of the Denver community. It's
important to note that this doesn't commit you to actually running the
event, just shows that there are mappers in Denver.
