Dear All,

Are you interested in learning about open source geodata? If so, you should attend the upcoming South Bay mapping party on November 22nd and 23rd.

The event details can be found here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/South_bay

You can RSVP here: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1327805

I am hosting this event for OpenStreetMap. OpenStreetMap is an open source project to collaboratively map the entire world. There are over 70,000 participants in OpenStreetMap worldwide, and we are working to increase participation here in the US. Mapping parties are events where anyone can come and participate in the OpenStreetMap project. They are social events where experienced and new mappers can meet to share and learn more about the project as well as get out and map.

Please contact me with any questions you may have, as well as suggestions for locations for future mapping events.

Cheers, Sarah Manley Bay Area Community Ambassador for OpenStreetMap Sarah@cloudmade.com
