Re: [Mapbuilder-devel] Community Mapbuilder 1.5 released

[Cameron S. <cam...@li...>]

Yes, I agree. Andrea, I'll need to buy you a beer at FOSS4G 2010.

Of interest to those on this list. Till Adams has submitted a 
presentation for FOSS4G about why some projects do well, using 
Openlayers and Mapbuilder as an example. I'm really excited to see this, 
and was delighted to see that the community ranked the presentation very 
highly.

So make sure you look out for it when you come to FOSS4G.

I'll be on leave for a week, so if there are any motions that Andrea 
pushes forward re Mapbuilder, I pre-emptively vote +1 to his suggestion.
