Hi all-  As some of you may already know, the OpenStreetMap project is
having a Las Vegas area get together this Saturday & Sunday from 12-4pm each
day.  If you're unfamiliar, OpenStreetMap can be thought of as the
'Wikipedia of maps'.  An open source project that utilizes geodata that's
free for anyone to use, edit and contribute to.

Currently our 100,000 contributors are adding all sorts of cool map features
around the world.  Please check for yourself: http://openstreetmap.org

We're meeting up at Rejavanate Coffee House (3300 E. Flamingo, Intersection
of Flamingo & Pecos) to give new and experienced users the chance to find
out more.  We'll also have GPS units available to lend out to do some
mapping during the event.

For more info, check the event page here:

Please give me a shout if you have any questions or suggestions.  Hope to
see you there!

Best,  -Dirk
