Hi Jeff, If you or someone at Boundless (or someone else in DC) would like to put together a proposal for DC, those of us on the board would be happy to read it! What we need in a proposal can be found here: http://openstreetmap.us/2013/09/call-for-locations-sotm-us/
We'll need a very quick turnaround, but let us know if you start working on a proposal and we'll give you a sense of our timeline. Thanks!
