For Wikimedia folks who are interested in possible collaborations with OSM, now seems like a good time to start thinking about possible presentations.
Staff from the Wikimedia Foundation, and/or Wikimedia volunteers from around the US outside of the Seattle area, may want to start thinking about travel plans.
For Wikimedia volunteers outside of Cascadia Wikimedians territory, you might consider applying for WMF Travel and Participation Support grants [1].
If you're inside of Cascadia Wikimedians territory and would like to attend the conference, we may have funds in our budget that can support your attendance. Contact me off-list for details.
Regards,
Pine

I am excited to announce that Seattle was chosen to host the OpenStreetMap 2016 State of the Map US Conference. The conference will take place July 23-25 on SeattleU's campus. We chose SeattleU for their low cost, proximity to Seattle and access to public transit. The food trucks near by didn't hurt either.
We are looking for help! Let us know if you want to help. Request for presentation proposals should be coming fairly soon. Start thinking about what you want to present or teach.
The formal announcement can be found at: https://openstreetmap.us/2016/02/sotmus-2016/
