<div>== Code Sprint - what's that? ==<br />
<br />
A code sprint is about getting a group together to work on Open Source software, sitting around a table and sharing ideas. It's not just about writing code, as you know a project has many needs including documentation, testing, and providing feedback. What a better way to give feedback and give back to the project that you love than to spend a day with the project's developers. There are roles needed to be filled, no matter what your expertise. <br />
<br />
With such a short timeframe (one day) you should probably use this page to set a specific goal for your project. But don't worry, if all you get done is actually sitting at the same table with the project's developers and talking about the next release, that is also great&nbsp;:)<br />

== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==<br />
<br />
The [http://www.osgeo.org Open Source Geospatial Foundation] would like to extend a welcome to all SoC students. On this page you will find links to a host of ideas organized by project. You will find ideas ranging from the depths of computer science graph theory to the heights of visualization. One thing all these ideas have in common is lots and lots of spatial data.<br />
<br />
These ideas are '''*only*''' to motivate you, and serve as example of the kind of hills we want to charge up. Your own ideas are more than welcomed - they are encouraged. We view you as the next wave of open source leaders; show us what you've got.<br />
<br />
* '''Students: If you need more information on how to apply you can contact all the mentoring organisations via the OSGeo-SoC mailing list''' ([[#How to get in contact via mailing lists|see below]])<br />
<br />
* There is a [http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code/wiki/GsocFlyers Google SoC flyer] to look at and post in appropriate places and [http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/flyer/google_summer_of_code/OSGeo_GSoC_2013.pdf an OSGeo flavoured one as well].<br />
<br />
* Ok, [[OSGeo]] is involved in working with maps and things, but what kind of projects does it really do? Have a look at the [http://planet.osgeo.org/ live blog feed] to see what people are working on right now.<br />
<br />
* Mentors, there's an additional link providing some tips and specifying your responsibilities on the main OSGeo [[Google Summer of Code 2014]] wiki page.<br />

* March 21: Student application deadline.<br />
* April 21: '''Accepted student proposals are announced and Community Bonding Period begins.'''<br />
* May 19: '''Coding begins!'''<br />

<br />
== What to expect during the summer ==<br />
<br />
* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:<br />

<br />
<br />
=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===<br />
<br />
You and your mentors will decide on the specifics, but we will expect you and your mentor to communicate *a lot*. Part of the idea of SoC is to integrate you into the developer community, so you should get involved with them from the start. The more you communicate the easier it will be. Don't be afraid that the mentors will request your phone number. It is only to make sure that we can reach you in case of problems, like making sure you get paid.<br />
<br />
University exams and semester terms vary widely, if we know ''in advance'' that you need a week off to study, or that you've already scheduled a short vacation to somewhere off the grid, that's fine and won't count against you. But you need to ''communicate'' this up front so we can make a plan to work around it.<br />
<br />
=== Weekly reports ===<br />
<br />
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:<br />
<br />
# What did you get done this week?<br />
# What do you plan on doing next week?<br />
# Are you blocked on anything?<br />
<br />
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the <br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)<br />
<br />
If you want, feel free to write *more*. But three sentences is the bare minimum. *IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU SEND YOUR PROGRESS REPORTS ON TIME*, if you don't send this email your mentors will start to get twitchy, and *especially* if they don't get any responses to their emails / don't see you in IRC. Twitchy mentors is not what we want. If you are blocked by finals, that's cool. We have all studied at some point, just tell us about it up front, be honest, and we'll work around it. If you don't know how to proceed and your mentor isn't answering *definitely* tell about it. The SoC project admins will always be available. Basically the point is that you open up the communication channels, and keep them open. That way you will have a super summer, and get paid ;)<br />
<br />
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Wiki page and blogs ===<br />
<br />
In addition to weekly reports we require you to maintain a wiki or blog page for your project. You should store your weekly reports there and add other information, like how to compile and test your program. If applicable add screenshots and other nice info.<br />
<br />
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.<br />
<br />
We plan to link all of the students' blogs to the [http://planet.osgeo.org OSGeo Planet] blog aggregator for maximum community exposure and hopefully early feedback from the experts who read it, which may save you a lot of time and trouble if, for example, some obscure wheel has already been invented by another partner project.<br />
<br />
Final reports from those blogs and wiki pages will be collected into a OSGeoofcode posting about what everyone did during the summer, ensuring you long lasting fame and fortune. (''Or failing that, a bit of public press, a bit of cash from Google, and a lot of gratitude and kudos from us, your peers.'')<br />

== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==<br />
<br />
The [http://www.osgeo.org Open Source Geospatial Foundation] would like to extend a welcome to all SoC students. On this page you will find links to a host of ideas organized by project. You will find ideas ranging from the depths of computer science graph theory to the heights of visualization. One thing all these ideas have in common is lots and lots of spatial data.<br />
<br />
These ideas are '''*only*''' to motivate you, and serve as example of the kind of hills we want to charge up. Your own ideas are more than welcomed - they are encouraged. We view you as the next wave of open source leaders; show us what you've got.<br />
<br />
* '''Students: If you need more information on how to apply you can contact all the mentoring organisations via the OSGeo-SoC mailing list''' ([[#How to get in contact via mailing lists|see below]])<br />
<br />
* There is a [http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code/wiki/GsocFlyers Google SoC flyer] to look at and post in appropriate places and [http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/flyer/google_summer_of_code/OSGeo_GSoC_2013.pdf an OSGeo flavoured one as well].<br />
<br />
* Ok, [[OSGeo]] is involved in working with maps and things, but what kind of projects does it really do? Have a look at the [http://planet.osgeo.org/ live blog feed] to see what people are working on right now.<br />

=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===<br />
<br />
You and your mentors will decide on the specifics, but we will expect you and your mentor to communicate *a lot*. Part of the idea of SoC is to integrate you into the developer community, so you should get involved with them from the start. The more you communicate the easier it will be. Don't be afraid that the mentors will request your phone number. It is only to make sure that we can reach you in case of problems, like making sure you get paid.<br />
<br />

But you need to ''communicate'' this up front so we can make a plan to work around it.<br />
<br />
=== Weekly reports ===<br />
<br />
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:<br />
<br />
# What did you get done this week?<br />
# What do you plan on doing next week?<br />
# Are you blocked on anything?<br />
<br />
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the <br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)<br />
<br />
If you want, feel free to write *more*. But three sentences is the bare minimum. *IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU SEND YOUR PROGRESS REPORTS ON TIME*, if you don't send this email your mentors will start to get twitchy, and *especially* if they don't get any responses to their emails / don't see you in IRC. Twitchy mentors is not what we want. If you are blocked by finals, that's cool. We have all studied at some point, just tell us about it up front, be honest, and we'll work around it. If you don't know how to proceed and your mentor isn't answering *definitely* tell about it. The SoC project admins will always be available. Basically the point is that you open up the communication channels, and keep them open. That way you will have a super summer, and get paid ;)<br />

Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Wiki page and blogs ===<br />
<br />
In addition to weekly reports we require you to maintain a wiki or blog page for your project. You should store your weekly reports there and add other information, like how to compile and test your program. If applicable add screenshots and other nice info.<br />
<br />
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.<br />
<br />
We plan to link all of the students' blogs to the [http://planet.osgeo.org OSGeo Planet] blog aggregator for maximum community exposure and hopefully early feedback from the experts who read it, which may save you a lot of time and trouble if, for example, some obscure wheel has already been invented by another partner project.<br />
<br />
Final reports from those blogs and wiki pages will be collected into a OSGeoofcode posting about what everyone did during the summer, ensuring you long lasting fame and fortune. (''Or failing that, a bit of public press, a bit of cash from Google, and a lot of gratitude and kudos from us, your peers.'')<br />

== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==<br />
<br />
The [http://www.osgeo.org Open Source Geospatial Foundation] would like to extend a welcome to all SoC students. On this page you will find links to a host of ideas organized by project. You will find ideas ranging from the depths of computer science graph theory to the heights of visualization. One thing all these ideas have in common is lots and lots of spatial data.<br />
<br />
These ideas are '''*only*''' to motivate you, and serve as example of the kind of hills we want to charge up. Your own ideas are more than welcomed - they are encouraged. We view you as the next wave of open source leaders; show us what you've got.<br />
<br />
* '''Students: If you need more information on how to apply you can contact all the mentoring organisations via the OSGeo-SoC mailing list''' ([[#How to get in contact via mailing lists|see below]])<br />
<br />
* There is a [http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code/wiki/GsocFlyers Google SoC flyer] to look at and post in appropriate places and [http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/flyer/google_summer_of_code/OSGeo_GSoC_2013.pdf an OSGeo flavoured one as well].<br />
<br />
* Ok, [[OSGeo]] is involved in working with maps and things, but what kind of projects does it really do? Have a look at the [http://planet.osgeo.org/ live blog feed] to see what people are working on right now.<br />

<br />
== What to expect during the summer ==<br />
<br />
* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:<br />
: [http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2011/02/flip-bits-not-burgers-student-guide.html Flip bits not Burgers: The Student's Guide to the Summer of Code] -- READ THIS eBOOK<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===<br />
<br />
You and your mentors will decide on the specifics, but we will expect you and your mentor to communicate *a lot*. Part of the idea of SoC is to integrate you into the developer community, so you should get involved with them from the start. The more you communicate the easier it will be. Don't be afraid that the mentors will request your phone number. It is only to make sure that we can reach you in case of problems, like making sure you get paid.<br />
<br />
University exams and semester terms vary widely, if we know ''in advance'' that you need a week off to study, or that you've already scheduled a short vacation to somewhere off the grid, that's fine and won't count against you. But you need to ''communicate'' this up front so we can make a plan to work around it.<br />
<br />
=== Weekly reports ===<br />
<br />
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:<br />
<br />
# What did you get done this week?<br />
# What do you plan on doing next week?<br />
# Are you blocked on anything?<br />
<br />
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the <br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)<br />
<br />
If you want, feel free to write *more*. But three sentences is the bare minimum. *IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU SEND YOUR PROGRESS REPORTS ON TIME*, if you don't send this email your mentors will start to get twitchy, and *especially* if they don't get any responses to their emails / don't see you in IRC. Twitchy mentors is not what we want. If you are blocked by finals, that's cool. We have all studied at some point, just tell us about it up front, be honest, and we'll work around it. If you don't know how to proceed and your mentor isn't answering *definitely* tell about it. The SoC project admins will always be available. Basically the point is that you open up the communication channels, and keep them open. That way you will have a super summer, and get paid ;)<br />
<br />
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Wiki page and blogs ===<br />
<br />
In addition to weekly reports we require you to maintain a wiki or blog page for your project. You should store your weekly reports there and add other information, like how to compile and test your program. If applicable add screenshots and other nice info.<br />
<br />
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.<br />
<br />
We plan to link all of the students' blogs to the [http://planet.osgeo.org OSGeo Planet] blog aggregator for maximum community exposure and hopefully early feedback from the experts who read it, which may save you a lot of time and trouble if, for example, some obscure wheel has already been invented by another partner project.<br />
<br />
Final reports from those blogs and wiki pages will be collected into a OSGeoofcode posting about what everyone did during the summer, ensuring you long lasting fame and fortune. (''Or failing that, a bit of public press, a bit of cash from Google, and a lot of gratitude and kudos from us, your peers.'')<br />

<br />
== What to expect during the summer ==<br />
<br />
* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:<br />
: [http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2011/02/flip-bits-not-burgers-student-guide.html Flip bits not Burgers: The Student's Guide to the Summer of Code] -- READ THIS eBOOK<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===<br />
<br />
You and your mentors will decide on the specifics, but we will expect you and your mentor to communicate *a lot*. Part of the idea of SoC is to integrate you into the developer community, so you should get involved with them from the start. The more you communicate the easier it will be. Don't be afraid that the mentors will request your phone number. It is only to make sure that we can reach you in case of problems, like making sure you get paid.<br />
<br />
University exams and semester terms vary widely, if we know ''in advance'' that you need a week off to study, or that you've already scheduled a short vacation to somewhere off the grid, that's fine and won't count against you. But you need to ''communicate'' this up front so we can make a plan to work around it.<br />
<br />
=== Weekly reports ===<br />
<br />
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:<br />
<br />
# What did you get done this week?<br />
# What do you plan on doing next week?<br />
# Are you blocked on anything?<br />
<br />
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the <br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)<br />
<br />
If you want, feel free to write *more*. But three sentences is the bare minimum. *IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU SEND YOUR PROGRESS REPORTS ON TIME*, if you don't send this email your mentors will start to get twitchy, and *especially* if they don't get any responses to their emails / don't see you in IRC. Twitchy mentors is not what we want. If you are blocked by finals, that's cool. We have all studied at some point, just tell us about it up front, be honest, and we'll work around it. If you don't know how to proceed and your mentor isn't answering *definitely* tell about it. The SoC project admins will always be available. Basically the point is that you open up the communication channels, and keep them open. That way you will have a super summer, and get paid ;)<br />
<br />
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Wiki page and blogs ===<br />
<br />
In addition to weekly reports we require you to maintain a wiki or blog page for your project. You should store your weekly reports there and add other information, like how to compile and test your program. If applicable add screenshots and other nice info.<br />
<br />
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.<br />
<br />
We plan to link all of the students' blogs to the [http://planet.osgeo.org OSGeo Planet] blog aggregator for maximum community exposure and hopefully early feedback from the experts who read it, which may save you a lot of time and trouble if, for example, some obscure wheel has already been invented by another partner project.<br />
<br />
Final reports from those blogs and wiki pages will be collected into a OSGeoofcode posting about what everyone did during the summer, ensuring you long lasting fame and fortune. (''Or failing that, a bit of public press, a bit of cash from Google, and a lot of gratitude and kudos from us, your peers.'')<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $200 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />

== Individual Preparation ==<br />
<br />
* Bring your own computer<br />
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible<br />
<br />
== FAQ ==<br />
<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />

<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $200 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
* Please join the mailing list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint<br />
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net<br />

<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $200 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
* Please join the mailing list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint<br />
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net<br />

** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $200 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
* Please join the mailing list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint<br />
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net<br />
<br />
== Participants ==<br />
We are planning for attendance of 20-30. Please add your name and the projects you are hoping to sprint and note the likeliness of your attendance.<br />
<br />
Indicate if you have already finalized accommodation and travel arrangements.<br />

== Individual Preparation ==<br />
<br />
* Bring your own computer<br />
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible<br />
<br />
== FAQ ==<br />
<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />
== Extracurricular Activities ==<br />
<br />
Here are some events happening around town that could be of interest:<br />
<br />
=== Sporting Events ===<br />
* Hockey - Mon Mar 25 Maple Leafs vs. Bruins<br />

<br />
== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: $2000+, Silver: $1500, Bronze: $750<br />

<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it. (Remember that feature you wanted...) <br />
<br />
To sponsor, please contact Leo Hsu and Regina Obe (lr at pcorp dot us) directly regarding sponsorship and level of sponsorship you'd like to provide<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />

== Individual Preparation ==<br />
<br />
* Bring your own computer<br />
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible<br />
<br />
== FAQ ==<br />
<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />

== Individual Preparation ==<br />
<br />
* Bring your own computer<br />
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible<br />
<br />
== FAQ ==<br />
<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />
== Extracurricular Activities ==<br />
<br />
Here are some events happening around town that could be of interest:<br />
<br />
=== Sporting Events ===<br />
* Hockey - Mon Mar 25 Maple Leafs vs. Bruins<br />

<br />
== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: $2000+, Silver: $1500, Bronze: $750<br />

<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it. (Remember that feature you wanted...) <br />
<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday - Azavea: GeoTrellis<br />
* Tuesday - TBA<br />

** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />
== Extracurricular Activities ==<br />
<br />
Here are some events happening around town that could be of interest:<br />
<br />
=== Sporting Events ===<br />
* Hockey - Mon Mar 25 Maple Leafs vs. Bruins<br />

<br />
== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: $2000+, Silver: $1500, Bronze: $750<br />

<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday - Azavea: GeoTrellis<br />
* Tuesday - TBA<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />
<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday - Azavea: GeoTrellis<br />
* Tuesday - TBA<br />
* Wednesday - TBA<br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
* Please join the mailing list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint<br />
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net<br />
<br />
== Participation ==<br />
We are planning for attendance of 20-30. Please add your name and the projects you are hoping to sprint and note the likeliness of your attendance.<br />

== Individual Preparation ==<br />
<br />
* Bring your own computer<br />
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible<br />
<br />
== FAQ ==<br />
<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />

== Individual Preparation ==<br />
<br />
* Bring your own computer<br />
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible<br />
<br />
== FAQ ==<br />
<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />

** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />
<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday - Azavea: GeoTrellis<br />
* Tuesday - TBA<br />
* Wednesday - TBA<br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
* Please join the mailing list:<br>http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint<br />
* IRC chat during the event:<br>Channel: #tosprint<br>Server: irc.freenode.net<br />
<br />
== Participation ==<br />
We are planning for attendance of 20-30. Please add your name and the projects you are hoping to sprint and note the likeliness of your attendance.<br />
<br />
Indicate if you have already finalized accommodation and travel arrangements.<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now. You will still find great values on Hotwire or Price Line. Deluxe accommodation starts around $120. Luxury starts around $170. Act fast!<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us. Otherwise be expected to consume land animals, sea creatures, and vegetation.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday - Azavea: GeoTrellis<br />

== Individual Preparation ==<br />
<br />
* Bring your own computer<br />
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible<br />
<br />
== FAQ ==<br />
<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />
== Extracurricular Activities ==<br />
<br />
Here are some events happening around town that could be of interest:<br />
<br />
=== Sporting Events ===<br />
* Hockey - Mon Mar 25 Maple Leafs vs. Bruins<br />
* Hockey - Wed Mar 27 Canadiens vs. Bruins<br />
* Hoops - Tue Mar 26 Knicks vs. Celtics<br />
<br />
=== Crashing Parties ===<br />
* Mon Mar 25 7-10 PM [http://ignitelocationtechboston1.eventbrite.com/ Ignite LocationTech Boston] (follow link to register)<br />
* [http://www.meetup.com/avidgeo/ AvidGeo] might be having a meetup around that time too.<br />
<br />
== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: $2000+, Silver: $1500, Bronze: $750<br />
<br />
We encourage sponsors ($750+) to support nutriment and entertainment for the sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four productive days. Contributions will go towards space rental, lunch, and libations (in this order). <br />
<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it. (Remember that feature you wanted...) <br />
<br />
To sponsor, please contact Leo Hsu and Regina Obe (lr at pcorp dot us) directly regarding sponsorship and level of sponsorship you'd like to provide<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />

<br />
* Is the Boston Code Sprint just a coding event?<br />
** Yes, a coding, testing and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.<br />
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?<br />
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.<br />
* Will there be presentation time to show case innovative uses of technology?<br />
** Yes, Sponsors and sprinters actively working on projects will have their moment of glory<br />
<br />

If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now.<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now.<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />
<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday<br />
Azavea: GeoTrellis<br />
<br />
* Tuesday<br />

<br />
* Wednesday<br />

<br />
== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: $2000+<br />
* Silver: $1500<br />
* Bronze: $750<br />
<br />
We encourage sponsors ($750+) to support nutriment and entertainment for the sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four productive days. Contributions will go towards space rental, lunch, and libations (in this order). <br />
<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300 or would like to have a roomie, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us now.<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />

== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: $2000+<br />
* Silver: $1500<br />
* Bronze: $750<br />
<br />
We encourage sponsors ($750+) to support nutriment and entertainment for the sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four productive days. Contributions will go towards space rental, lunch, and libations (in this order). <br />
<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it. (Remember that feature you wanted...) <br />
<br />
To sponsor, please contact Leo Hsu and Regina Obe (lr at pcorp dot us) directly regarding sponsorship and level of sponsorship you'd like to provide<br />

== SPECIAL BULLETIN ==<br />
If you have not found accommodation under $300, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />
We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.<br />

== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best. There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars. Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within a half mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
== Costs ==<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston<br />
* Accommodation for three nights<br />
* Breakfast and dinner<br />
<br />
== Project Plans ==<br />
* [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] <br />
* [https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Boston-Codesprint-Agenda MapServer sprint plan]<br />
<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday<br />
Azavea: GeoTrellis<br />
<br />
* Tuesday<br />

== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: $2000+<br />
* Silver: $1500<br />
* Bronze: $750<br />
<br />
We encourage sponsors ($750+) to support nutriment and entertainment for the sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four productive days. Contributions will go towards space rental, lunch, and libations (in this order). <br />
<br />
Sponsors will receive the following honors:<br />
<br />
* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page<br />
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS<br />
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your in put in person<br />
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it. (Remember that feature you wanted...) <br />
<br />
To sponsor, please contact Leo Hsu and Regina Obe (lr at pcorp dot us) directly regarding sponsorship and level of sponsorship you'd like to provide<br />

If you have not found accommodation under $300, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
If you have special dietary requirements, please contact Leo at lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />

<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />

<br />
Boston has no major conventions during the Code Sprint.<br />
<br />
There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within walking, all rated above three stars.<br />
<br />
Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us.<br />
<br />
We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />

== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
<br />

<br />
== Sponsor Demos ==<br />
<br />
During the lunch hour, our sponsors will have the opportunity to talk briefly and informally about their products/services and how they use open source.<br />
<br />
* Monday<br />

== Sponsors ==<br />
We have three sponsorship levels:<br />
<br />
* Gold: >= $2000<br />
* Silver: $1500<br />
* Bronze: $750<br />
<br />
We will again be looking for sponsors ($750+) to support food and fun for the sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four productive days. Each sponsorship will be put towards lunch and dinner costs for the sprinters, and potentially bringing in sprinters who might otherwise be unable to attend. <br />
<br />
<br />
Sponsors get the following benefits:<br />
<br />
* Your banner at the top of this page<br />
* 30-minute slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS (first come first serve)<br />
* Get to sit with us at the sprint and have input in project road map of an OSGeo project you are interested in<br />
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it. Remember that feature you wanted in X :) <br />
* The good feeling that you have contributed to the FOSS GIS movement (priceless and good for the health too)<br />
<br />
To sponsor, please contact Leo Hsu and Regina Obe (lr at pcorp dot us) directly regarding sponsorship and level of sponsorship you'd like to provide<br />
<br />
=== 2013 Sponsors ===<br />

== Budget ==<br />
<br />
== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within ½ mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
Boston has no major conventions during the Code Sprint. Note: [http://www.eclipsecon.org/2013/ EclipseCon 2013] is running during the same period.<br />
<br />
There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within a ½ mile, all rated above three stars.<br />
<br />
Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. <br />
We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston, variable depending on where you are.<br />
* Accommodation for four nights, $300 to $600 depending on what room you choose and whether you room share.<br />
* Breakfast, dinner and other snacks.<br />
* The sponsorship moneys will be put towards: conference room rent, morning snacks, lunches, dinner (1), social event (?), and trip subsidies (e.g. travel costs for core developers)<br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
<br />
* Please join the mailing list:<br>http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint<br />
<br />
* IRC chat during the event:<br>Channel: #tosprint<br>Server: irc.freenode.net<br />
<br />
== Participation ==<br />
<br />
We are planning for attendance of 20-30. Please add your name and the projects you are hoping to sprint and note the likeliness of your attendance.<br />
<br />
For room if you need a room - put either:<br />
single room - if you want your own<br />
room share - if you'd prefer to share or don't care <br />
local arrangements - put if you already have arrangements planned <br />

== Budget ==<br />
<br />
== Hotel ==<br />
We've decided not to get a block of rooms because it seems it is pricier than having people pick the hotel they like best.<br />
<br />
Our recommendation is to book your own room via Hotwire or Priceline.<br />
<br />
For Hotwire, any hotel in the Financial District will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
For Price Line, any hotel within ½ mile of 1 DEVONSHIRE PL BOSTON MA 02109 will be within walking distance.<br />
<br />
Boston has no major conventions during the Code Sprint. Note: [http://www.eclipsecon.org/2013/ EclipseCon 2013] is running during the same period.<br />
<br />
There are over a dozen hotels name-brand and boutique within a ½ mile, all rated above three stars.<br />
<br />
Should you have specific questions, feel free to email us directly: lr at pcorp.us. <br />
We’ll help you find the perfect accommodation.<br />
<br />
== Costs ==<br />
<br />
Participants should plan for the following costs:<br />
<br />
* Travel to Boston, variable depending on where you are.<br />
* Accommodation for four nights, $300 to $600 depending on what room you choose and whether you room share.<br />
* Breakfast, dinner and other snacks.<br />
* The sponsorship moneys will be put towards: conference room rent, morning snacks, lunches, dinner (1), social event (?), and trip subsidies (e.g. travel costs for core developers)<br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
<br />
* Please join the mailing list:<br>http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint<br />

== Purpose ==<br />
Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]] and previous years: [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011), [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.<br />
