Event promotion message:

Dear Users of our beloved QGIS Project

Friday, 30 October 2020 is KwakFriday! What is 'KwakFriday' you may be wondering to yourself? It is an initiative to replace the wonderful community meetups we used to hold every six months when times were different. Like our in-person meetings, the event is organised on a principle of self-organisation and community participation.
