Aaron, I might be able to swing a Friday the 27th in Portland, though I don't think that I'll be able to attend the whole conference. I could possibly serve as a panel speaker if you needed one, depending on the topic, and would be willing to do a couple of hours at the booth as well.
Landon -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Aaron Racicot Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 8:51 AM To: 'OSGeo Discussions'; 'Visibility Committee Discussion List' Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] OSCON 2007 - Call for OSGeo speakers... I will be organizing the OSGeo presence at OSCON this year (and guess what, I am already behind schedule!). I was planning on submitting a proposal for a 90 minute session (hopefully for 3-4 speakers) on behalf of OSGeo as well as hosting a BOF again this year. We had great interaction with the community last year and the audience was very receptive to our cause. I would love to get an idea of who plans to attend and who would be willing to talk. I plan on presenting and would love to get 2-3 more people, hopefully willing to give talks on specific projects or integration efforts. Please let me know ASAP as I will put in the proposal later today and any other names and email addresses I can mark down as speakers would be great. We are tentatively lined up to have a booth again this year (very similar to last year's event) so I will be looking to get people signed on for "booth duty" as well. More to come after we get confirmation of a speaking slot at the end of the month.
