Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] new AP course needs FOSS input

Hi all,
Just ran across this and thought it would be good for those of us in educat=
ion in the US to be aware...
http://news.aag.org/2015/05/aag-seeks-proposal-authors-reviewers-for-new-ap=
-course-in-gist/

If any of us have some time to make sure that FOSS material is included in =
the curriculum, that would be ... good.
:-)

AP courses are taken in high school, and if a test is passed at the end the=
y are awarded some college credit.

Cheers,
Percy
