Time’s Running Out! Voting for FOSS4G-NA 2016

CartoDB is very excited about the upcoming FOSS4G-NA conference!

We’ve given sessions at the conference for the last 2 years and hope 2016 won’t be an exception. Held in Raleigh, North Carolina from May 2-5, this is the premiere conference for free, open source software designed for geospatial in North America. Thousands of participants and hundreds of companies converge to share, demo, and talk about the things we love most.

In order to see us there we need your help!

FOSS4G NA has opened up community voting to allow participants to have a say in what sessions they would like to see at this year’s conference. You can vote for as many panels as you’d like! Voting remains open until February 8, 2016, 11:59 EST.

• Wrapping up Python into a Cloud-based PostgreSQL by Andy Eschbacher
