[Talk-us] Geography Awareness Week 2011

[Martijn van Exel]

Harry Wood created a wiki page for the GAW and I put in my work in
progress to organize an OSM event on GIS day at the University of
Utah.
After tomorrow when I will sit down and talk with the UofU geography
department people, I will be able to be more specific about the date
and the type of event. I will keep you posted.
