P.
Yes, Paul, OSGeo-Live 5.5 will be ready at the beginning of March 2012
and is being used at a number of European FOSS4G events as well.
As we get close to the event, we'd like input into whether you would
have USBs or DVDs.
USBs are better as they load and run faster, but they cost more money.
I'm also looking for a volunteer contact person who is attending the
conference and can coordinate with a local printer and ensure the
DVDs/USB as delivered to the conference.

Paul,
I'm hopeful that FOSS4G-North America can continue the convention of FOSS4G
events for the last few years and hand out an OSGeo-Live DVD or USB to all
delegates.
A DVD costs ~ $1 to $2 per delegate, and an early commitment to OSGeo-Live
at conferences has been one of the strong drivers behind the success of
OSGeo-Live, as we have been able to say "ensure your applications work and
are documented on OSGeo-Live, and they will be handed out at foss4g type
conferences around the world".
Could the FOSS4G North America committee please consider making such a
commitment to OSGeo-Live this year.

On behalf of OSGeo North America, we’d like to invite you to attend
the Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial - North America
(FOSS4G-NA) conference being held from April 10-12, 2012 at the Walter
E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC. This event will
serve as a regional follow-up to last September’s highly successful
international FOSS4G 2011 conference in Denver, Colorado, focusing on
the North American open source geospatial community.
