Scubbx

It won’t be long now before AGIT opens its doors!

We have something new planned for this year: I (ScubbX) will be taking my projector, which I bought second hand and which has been sitting in my cupboard unused ever since, to AGIT and putting it to use. After the accident with my TV last year, I’ve become a bit more cautious about bringing equipment into the house…

This year again, there is the [‘netidee’ funding pot] (https://www.netidee.at/), in which some of the projects submitted are sponsored with up to €50,000. Submissions are still possible until 17 July 2018. There are bound to be some OpenStreetMap or FOSSGIS projects that would fit in there.

The requirements for submitting a project are that all results are and remain open source or are published under a Creative Commons licence.
