  Developer/programmer with a variety of experiences and backgrounds that is always looking to learn more about open source software.

  Location: Denver, CO

  Standard Set Answer:

  Having just seen the big announcement from Foursquare on switching to OSM, and having perused and looked at Leaflet before, I'd like to take a closer look. 

  Hope to learn how to use Leaflet (especially if it's possible to use it with non SVG based tiles) and how to hook it to various data sources.

  Sure, I'd be interested in helping pick topics we can focus on. Can't say I have tons of time to do so as I have a newborn in the house...

  Public Set Answer:

  1. No real data of my own to map, but would like to connect leaflet to other sources.

  2. I have a decent background in web development but could always use more tips.
