Hi,
We would like to add a local language message for our key FOSS4G
selling page, which will be copied onto our web page, and locally
targeted media releases.
Please let us know if you can help (ideally within the upcoming
week). We are looking for one page of translation, which is to be
copied into subversion here:
https://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/foss4g/2009/documents/propaganda/What%20is%20FOSS4G%20en.doc
I've copied the text below as well:
FOSS4G 2009 – More than an international Geospatial Open Source
Conference
The conference for Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial
(FOSS4G) will be held from 20-23 October, 2009 in Sydney, Australia.
_http://2009.foss4g.org <http://2009.foss4g.org/>_
Growing out of regional Open Source community meetings, the FOSS4G
conference has been reborn in recent years as a meeting place for
international geospatial experts to gather and discuss the problems
and opportunities of the day. With themes ranging from the
integration of Open Source with Proprietary systems to the building
of Spatial Data Infrastructures and application of Open Geospatial
Standards, the conference offers a unique opportunity to tap into
the wealth of knowledge and experience available among the Open
Source developers, sponsors and geospatial professionals of all
persuasions.
Highlights from FOSS4G 2009 include:
*The Climate Change Integration Plugfest (CCIP)*: FOSS4G will launch
the OGC's Climate Change Integration Plugfest (CCIP), which
demonstrates standards based interoperability between Open Source
and Proprietary geospatial applications. It consists of servers with
multiple virtual machines, each installed with geospatial
applications offering standards based web services. There will be
many opportunities to review SDI components, and talk directly to
vendors and implementers about the effectiveness of different
approaches and components.

*FOSS4G Live DVD*: Live DVDs, based on the Xubuntu operating system
and including Geospatial Open Source Software, will be given to all
delegates. Users can boot a Live DVD on their computer and trial the
software without installing or affecting the existing system.

*Installfest*: The informal Installfest pre-dinner slot will give
delegates the opportunity to meet in a common area and install a
wide variety of FOSS software on their laptops, EEPC or any other
system they care to bring in. Community members will be on hand to
assist with any troubles and provide help and insight into the
software.
*Workshops and Tutorials*: Workshops and Tutorials allow presenters
to lead attendees through applications, integration solutions, or
other topics in an interactive environment.
*Presentations*: The meat of the conference is its presentations.
Drawing on a huge community of local, regional and international
experts we will discuss some of the most current and poignant topics
in the industry today. Expect to hear honest presentations
discussing weaknesses as well as strengths, like the famous Web Map
Server performance shootout.
*Birds of a Feather*: Rooms have been set aside for semi-organised
meetings between like minded groups. Some prominent community
initiatives started in prior FOSS4G Birds of a Feather sessions.
*Code Sprint*: The weekend after FOSS4G is reserved for the Hackers'
Code Sprint. Hackers will be locked in a basement with lots of
bandwidth, pizzas and coke. (Well, maybe something better than that,
but we don't want to spoil the mystical hacker image).
