In other words, perhaps the start of something like a FOSS4G conference
that complements -- not replaces -- the in-person event, but takes
advantage of our global access to webinar technology to allow more frequen

I'm also hoping
we can have at least one pre-conference workshop on some OSGeo software
product. Probably something for more "beginner" GIS people, but not
necessarily. Again, contact me if you have ideas and interest in doing
something.
I think connecting to IASC could help us in our
ty and thorough work. He is already -- and
will be -- a real contributor to OSGeo as a Charter Member.
