State of the Map Europe is taking place in Dundee, United Kingdom on 14 & 15th November.
Tickets are still available, and some special discounts have been agreed with hotels and travel providers.
Is it good to have a mega-thread of discussions and updates? Some people have also shared info on the Discussion page of the OSM wiki. Such as when/where they’ll be travelling through to get to the conference.
Here’s a preview of the conference t-shirt design.
If you want a t-shirt(unisex & female-fit available), water bottle, or winter hat, you need to purchase them with a ticket by 17th October. Then you get to collect them at the conference.
We’re doing more updates on: Mastodon, LinkedIn, and occasionally Instagram
This week the posts are focusing on
The conference won’t end with the last talk on Saturday… it’s going to close with an evening meal at a great local museum. We have full access to the museum after it closes, and this is all included in the conference ticket!
This museum? It’s basically next door.
Yes that museum. It’s a 5 to 15 minute walk from Abertay University, depending who you ask.
Nothing is very far in Dundee!
Will we see the northern lights?
I hope to see the lights for the first time. Knowing my luck I’ll bring the current Devon weather with me.
Is there somewhere where I can share my slides?
The makeathon held on Sunday went well. I wish we had had more time to do actual coding, but all the meetings were valuable to have.
Please email them to the conference address.
With slides that were saved to the room PC (or conf usb stick) we will sort through them and put them on the website. For sessions that were filmed, the slides will get edited in postproduction.
Is it possible to link to actual sessions? I seem to be missing any actual links on the website.
Edit: Just to mention one very odd issue I noticed at the conference - by default, on a small form factor PC (actually a Chromebook running a fairly old Linux) in place of the sessions I just saw “Powered by Pretalx” instead of the actual schedules, unless I made the browser even smaller so it switched to the phone UI (around 990 width). This was on both Firefox and Chromium, but isn’t reproducible on another machine.
About the time you posted that we made a change: you can right click a session title and open in a new tab/window or copy the URL.
The styling of the session page still needs some work, so please be patient. Those URLs should be where we place any video recordings if/when available.
We’ve started posting recordings of the sessions to YouTube:
