Hi Madi, I still did not obtain any confirmation mail about proposed presentation - do you know by chance, how far the process is?
As for the workshop, it seems odd to combine MapStore as concrete product with whole OSGeo stack and more dialogue-based workshop. I see them as two different topics for completely different auditorium. I would understand, that MapStore people would feel upset, if they would have to share their time with "pure" OSGeo. From my point of view, all decisions are bad (except having two full workshops accepted). I think, that the best option would than be to share the time with MapStore and gladly accept their offer kind 30:60 (rather 60:30 - OSGeo in general, MapStore as concrete example of local company using and developing OSGeo projects), if possible. NOTE: This is nothing against MapStore. I wish them all the best and I think, they deserve full workshop time slot as well. INSPIRE conference committee forses us to compete as international organization with semi-local company (GeoSolution). This is simply not all right (or do I see it completely wrong?) I also think, this shows us, that OSGeo is not taken seriously as important partner to conference committee of INSPIRE conference and that brings me back to our SDI committee proposed earlier - I have to push it little bit further (I do not like pushing to hard, though).
