[Talk-us] Locations for State of the Map US 2014

[Jeffrey Johnson]

What about DC that time of year? I'd really like to see more cooperation among USG agencies using and contributing to OSM and that may be a great time/place to kick that off. I'm sure Bonnie et al wouldn't object ;) I believe my employer (boundless) would be willing to help organize if it was close to home.

This puts us in March-May and FOSS4G is in September. Also, we've already had a SotM in Portland and while it was pretty darn great, we're trying to spread the love to other cities, too.

Also curious why it couldn't be held in the fall in conjunction with FOSS4G in Portland? Haven't heard much of anything on the global event either at this point.

It's about coming together and discussing the future of OpenStreetMap, and about bringing OpenStreetMap to a wider audience to grow it in numbers and diversity. This coming year we're aiming for a Spring date in March through May.
