Hi Lorenzo - personally -and up to Feb 2010 within the GFOSS.it association- I have been promoting the Barcelona event since the location was announced.
the official pitch (which was used also during the GFOSS day in Bolzano) is something like: "if you can go to Barcelona, go...if you can't talk to somebody who can!" in particular, I am interested in seeing the convergence of a well represented community from EU countries (and EU accession countries), Mediterranean area etc. ...with INSPIRE rolling and other important European issues, the Barcelona event seems like a natural place to try and meet, and possibly further consolidate a common basis for action Regards Andrea Giacomelli http://www.pibinko.org 2010/3/14 Lorenzo Becchi <lore...@ominiverdi.com>: > I'm sure I don't need long sentences to convince you: > - FOSS4G is fundamental to OSGeo. > - 50% of attendees at FOSS4G have heard of it through a friend or a > colleague. > - the conference in Barcelona will be amazing for size, interest, contents, > fun, ... > - we all want this conference to be cool > > let's keep the informal networking alive, think about who can be interest in > it and feel free to promote it the way you like. > Contact your communities, your geospatial-friends, your colleagues and > explain why going to Barcelona worth to you. > be creative and inspired, Barcelona is the town of eclectic artists!
