For those who are planning to follow along with the Open Source GIS workshop on their own laptops, if possible please download the stack-002.zip file from here: http://workshops.opengeo.org/stack-intro/ This is the workshop material that we will be working through. We will have several DVDs and flash drives available, but YOU can help speed things up by downloading it first, and even bringing an extra copy on DVD. You DO NOT need to install the software! Just copy the zip file to your hard drive and unzip it.

Thanks for helping to make this workshop a success!
