Hmmmm. looks like my proposal for an OSGeo session at OSCON did not go over well. Anyone have a suggestion as to how to re-approach them to try and convince the powers that be that we should be there. Last year was a great success. maybe it was my proposal they did not like ;-(
Any thoughts are welcome.

While your proposal was considered closely, we are not able to include it in the program this year. In most cases proposals are declined because the topic of the talk or tutorial was already covered in another presentation, or the subject matter was too narrow or vendor specific. This year we again had far too many great talks to fit into the number of slots available. We encourage you to submit a proposal for next year's conference, and we thank you again for taking the time to submit your proposal. We would like to offer you a 25% discount off the registration fee if you simply want to attend. Just register as an Attendee and use this code in the discount code field: os07dsd There are still opportunities to sponsor or exhibit at the event. For sponsor/exhibitor possibilities, please contact Yvonne Romaine, Sales and Exhibits Manager, [EMAIL PROTECTED] We hope to see you there! Regards, Vee McMillen Speaker/Operations Manager O'Reilly Media, Inc.
