ambassadors should be well familiar with OSGeo but also have certain mandate
to speak and make connections on behalf of the Foundation.

Marco, all,
I guess it is difficult to say how many Geo Conferences are planned to be
held, and also which of them are worth attending for OSGeo.
However, this Google Fusion Table (GFT) provides quiete a lot of
information for 2012:
Cameron, thanks for bringing this up for discussion.
A couple things to note:
- in some cases, the Board might decide that it is important enough to have an
