@MSFT365Status : looks like some issues in Australia?

I've been really looking forward to this! Start... your... engines...

Announcing the open #beta of Addresses #API 2.0. We’re standardising on GeoJSON to improve accessibility and readability. To experiment for free, register at the #Developer Portal and opt-in to the Beta Program. geoscape.com.au/addresses-api-…

@RobertMuir7 @littlelilkat I wouldnt normally reply either, but to @littlelilkat: just congrats, and good on you for posting, and to others: try to recognise attention seeking behaviour like @RobertMuir7's and not reward it. Don't even respond, that's his goal. Reward @littlelilkat :)

@littlelilkat I wonder what would happen if a man posted something similar about how he triumphed over a load of woman. Hanging I suspect.

Normally wouldn’t post this, but I just won my tennis league. I was the only woman in a men’s league. My first opponent told me women “obviously have no power” when they play and that he’d be “surprised to lose.” I beat him. I beat them all. I want people to know. That’s all. ;)

Penny for your thoughts?

Our CTO, Jo Abhayaratna, doing his thing at ThoughtWorksLIVE in Sydney this morning… @Jo_PSMA @thoughtworks #twliveau

@adamdsteer @RowanWinsemius @alexgleith Hey gang, would 530 suit people for a drink/bite. I have a squash game at 730 - but could come back out after I've worked dinner off ;)

@adamdsteer @RowanWinsemius We will! Actually, I've invited @alexgleith and co to Bent Spoke followed by Grease Monkey on Thursday night. You in? @RowanWinsemius ?

Anyone else up for a #geobeerCBR?

@LieberJosh Great stuff!

Great to have the #SDWIG team meeting here this week at the #OGC18FC in Colorado @w3c @opengeospatial ow.ly/hkQy30knanL

Tomorrow marks day 3 of the @opengeospatial TC meetings, and the next NAD ad hoc! Be sure to tune in at 1pm Mountain Daylight Time to discuss next steps in improving the use of crowdsourced data.

@G0rd82 @opengeospatial @OrdnanceSurvey Great presentation(s) @G0rd82. P.S. That pic looks way better than your Orlando one ;)

Heading to the @opengeospatial TC via a hike through the Rockies. What a way to spend a Sunday morning! #OGC_Adventurers

@MarcusMapMaker @opengeospatial Running a tiny bit behind schedule but en route!

@Jo_PSMA @opengeospatial No barriers to me at the Wig n Pen at 530pm. Might even bring some friends.

Anyone keen for a #GeobeerCBR on Thursday May 10? How about meeting at the Wig n Pen from 530pm. Scott Simmons from @opengeospatial is passing through and wanted a taste of local flavour

@tobybellwood @AlexGilleran @Data61news That. is. fast! Cool to see a plug for the Australian Government Linked Data Working Group on the data quality page too!

@MarcusMapMaker @stevage1 @pmc_gov_au @PSMA @ABSStats Great convo and feedback. I’m afraid we’ll always be dealing with some pseudo PID changes. We’re looking at things (like what @MarcusMapMaker alludes to) to make these _approach_ zero. We’re also looking at things that help minimize the impact of pseudo PID changes.

@stevage1 @pmc_gov_au publishes the @PSMA Localities boundaries on data.gov.au But it looks like you’ll need to combine each of the S/Ts. The @ABSStats use these to aggregate Mesh Blocks to create the Statistical Suburbs.

Is there a more accurate #opendata spatial boundary file for Australian suburbs than the ABS SSC dataset? #augistribe

@RowanWinsemius @adamdsteer @shanecrossman74 Hey @RowanWinsemius, here you go: labs.spotify.com/2014/03/27/spo…

@Jo_PSMA @adamdsteer @shanecrossman74 Thanks for joining us and sharing about what you've been up to, would be cool to see that spotify article if you can rustle it up!

Great catching up with @adamdsteer, @shanecrossman74 and the gang at #geobeerCBR
