Latest revision as of 02:45, 22 September 2013

Purpose

Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger problems, see the Toronto Code Sprint 2009 Agenda. We have chosen a mid-North American location because this code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, Mapserver, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide) and many members of the "C Tribe" are clustered in the area. Toronto is also a major travel hub, for sprinters traveling from afar. Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.

Sponsors

We have received support from six sponsors, each providing a $500 sponsorship that will be put towards venue, internet and lunch costs.

Thanks to our sponsors!

The event budget is available here. Any surplus at the end of the event will be turned over to OSGeo.

  • Receipts for dinners, hockey and beverages.
  • Receipts for conference room and internet.
