self-learner and engaged in software development for Geo-sciences since
last 25 years. He has sound knowledge of computer programming. Most of

Hi Sergio and Suchith,

Tonnes of thanks for sharing, I have been thinking along the same
avenue in view of one day having a FOSS4G for the Pacific Islands
Region.

It is still work in progress and we persevere to bring more of my
fellow Pacific Islanders to join us in "Geo for All".

Likewise, on the same token my intention is to do a presentation on
GeoForAll during the Pacific Islands GIS & RS User Conference - 28th
to 1st December 2016, and would love to handout OSGeoLive DVDs to
participants during the event.

Am looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Third. Sara is fantastic. I felt very fortunate to work with her as part 
of FOSS4G NA 2016, and in general in FOSS4G NA-land. Can't say enough
