Andrea,
I think this code sprint activity would be a good opportunity for
non-programmers to get involved in something at foss4g as well. Sounds
like a good idea.

Hi Wolf, Jody,
the comparison in Sydney is obviously open to anyone having the will

gvSig and uDig, since for those we found people for the conference in
Italy in mid-November. But, I repeat, anyone welcome.

The new GRASS wxPython GUI should maybe also be added
Okay that is a good call. There was a table comparing different
desktop systems released a while back - perhaps that could be a
starting point?

Hi Jody,
you are right, but I would like to involve power users in code sprints
as well. They get usually bored in all the moments they have to wait
for a fix to test.
I think a tester/power user in the sprint would have more fun in doing
something more autonomous.
But, yeah, it seems you are not
Hi Andrea:
That may be a good topic for a BOF session; I would recommend the code
sprint stays focused on you know ... coding :-)

Hi all, but mainly QGis-sers and gvSig-gers (I am now speaking as uDig-ger).
In Italy in November we have our annual GFOSS conference and this year
we proposed a workshop in which desktop GIS are compared.
So what should happen, is that we create a list of tasks that then are
shown/compared on ever
