Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Board Election Results for 2011
Congrats new members of the board, and those continuing. Good to see a Lady on the board, who is also from a field science using Foss4G tools. May you spread the good word of Foss4G tools for the entire world, away from the small pools where it is presently concentrated.

[OSGeo-Discuss] QGIS Ogr2Layer
I have been using your OGR2Layer plugin for QGIS and it seems great. However, i am trying to run it on my laptop (win7) and it keeps bombing with the same error message: New symbology is not yet implemented, it'll be ready soon Any ideas how to get round this? The input file and theming works on a version i am running on a desktop. -- --- tel: +44(0)131 651 7712 Discover resources - www.gogeo.ac.uk Find and share data - www.sharegeo.ac.uk The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[OSGeo-Discuss] Networking Opportunity at FOSS4G
Hi all, Just a quick note to mention that OSGeo will have a grand size booth space at FOSS4G, with lots of space for meeting friends, old and new. The Booth ends up being the goto place for finding others in the community. I've got some marketing material to hand out and show off, but that won't be much help without some hands to hand it out :) This is an invite to all members to join the team running the booth. Can you talk to new potential users, show off some applications (even your own work!) that use OSGeo software, or just generally smile and be friendly? Then you are uniquely qualified! It's the face-to-face marketing collaboration opportunity for 2011 - sign up at: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G2011_OSGeo_Booth Let me know if you have questions!

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Networking Opportunity at FOSS4G
Couple thoughts to add 1. since the individual OSGeo projects don't have dedicated exhibit booths at the conference, might be nice if there is a listing at the OSGeo booth of any of the projects' major developers, steering committee members and other 'heavy hitters' who are at the conference so other people can track them down.. where that's not already easy to figure out by examining the list of presenters and workshop instructors. 2. with a number of different people staffing the booth over the three days, and each probably trucking their own laptops in and out for demos, what's a good way to have some continuity in terms of what demos are available, no matter who happens to be at the booth at the moment?

Not a bad idea. Similarly, maybe project team members might like to have a pre-defined slot to be at the booth showing their projects off. Any project team members interested in that approach? 2. with a number of different people staffing the booth over the three days, and each probably trucking their own laptops in and out for demos, what's a good way to have some continuity in terms of what demos are available, no matter who happens to be at the booth at the moment?

OSGeo Live in a Virtual Machine (or live booted) - you can show people almost every app that is a Project and then some + the overview and quickstart docs for all of them. There's also plenty of sample data and projects already pre-configured. http://live.osgeo.org FYI version 5.0 will be out in time for Foss4g and will be in everyone's bag.
