-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Felipe, congratulations and thanks for this, looks like a great magazine (from the little that I actually understand...).
It is nice to see that some OSGeo resources are reused including Wiki and graphics. This is what OSGeo set out to do, support the geospatial FOSS idea in as many regions and languages possible. Please feel free to add the OSGeo logo and a link back to the web site. I guess that there will be many people in Brazil who have no clear concept of what OSGeo is all about. So maybe it would be a good idea to have an article with some basic information about OSGeo in one of your next editions (as you have a good one about OGC in this edition). Unfortunately I am not able to write in Portuguese myself, so all I can do is ask others... :-) Best regards, Arnulf Felipe Costa wrote: > Time to end the mystery and reveal what really is project FOSSGIS Brazil. > > Many bet that was an event, or a > > organization, but nobody has come to settle what really is this project. > > > > In recent years the Free Geo has grown and seconded as a real option in the > > corporate market, and with it an increase in > > demand for these technologies.
