Last year the Geospatial devroom only had half a day at FOSDEM, and we still ended up with a packed room and a queue down the corridor.
This year we have the whole of Saturday to ourselves, so if you have something geo-flavoured to share, whether it is maps, data, tools, clever hacks, fieldwork tech, city projects, OSM magic, climate work or anything else, now is the moment to submit a proposal.
The CfP is open until 1 December:

Talk by Ilya Zverev about #15minutesCities
Being able to do most of your things in a 15 minutes transit distance from your home is a great quality of life and environment indicator for a city.
He talks about how to measure this metric and identify which cities and neighborhoods are 15-minutes compatible.

This Christmas, I've finally bitten the bullet and done some serious contributing to @openstreetmap (and also joined the OSM Foundation while I was at it). Honestly, I think it's one of the great wonders of the #OpenSource internet, so I wrote a blog post about why I'm contributing (and you should too)
