QGIS local code sprint in Avignon 12 june 2025

This special event will take place on the third day leading up to the QGIS FR User Days — a day fully dedicated to contributing to QGIS in all its forms: funding, translation, documentation, coding, communication, etc. It's the perfect chance to connect, collaborate, and make an impact. Why not join the vibrant community of contributors heading to the user conference? :)

It will probably mainly be a French speaking event, but still open to anyone interested

See https://conf.qgis.osgeo.fr if your are interested in going to the conference or helping with the workshop day.

What is a Contributor Meeting?

A QGIS Contributor Meeting is a volunteer-driven event where contributors to the QGIS project from around the world get together in a common space. The event is normally three days in duration and we hold two such events each year. During these events, contributors to the QGIS project take the opportunity to plan their work, hold face-to-face discussions and present new improvements to the QGIS project that they have been working on. Everybody attending the event donates their time to the project for the days of the event. As a project that is built primarily through online collaboration, these meetings provide a crucial ingredient to the future development of the QGIS project. The event is planned largely as an ‘unconference’ with minimal structured programme planning. We do this to allow attendees the freedom to meet dynamically with those they encounter at the event. Those sessions that are planned are advertised on the event web page and we try to enable remote participation through video conferencing software. Although our hosts are not funded and donate the working space to us, we show our appreciation by making one of our software release’s splash screens in honour of that host, which is a great way to gain exposure of your institution and country to the hundreds of thousands of users that make use of QGIS.
