An excellent book that tells the FOSS story and explores its value
propositions and business models is 'The Success of Open Source' by
Steven Weber, who writes from the perspective of an 'outsider', a
political scientist.

On Jo's last point re funding travel expenses, this would be a huge
benefit for getting deserving delegates who don't have the means to Cape
Town next year and other conferences in future. Perhaps a merit- and
means- based application process could be applied.

I wonder if an organisation like www.translate.org.za would want to get
involved, say by:
- offering their facilities for FOSS GIS translations
- helping out with FOSS GIS translations through OSGeo channels
- extending their model beyond South African languages
?

-framework for local contributors to structure and contribute exercises,
lessons, etc.
-central website for resources
-possible advanced options for network deployment, more sophisticated
users, 'computer studies' learners (i.e. developers), school web map
services, etc.
Any takers?

Hi
Good to hear that Guillaume
By Monday 23rd we had 240 registrations from over 40 countries. That's a great
core of Early Birds to start with. We are going to expand our marketing
campaign now to attract more registrants from a wider spectrum over the next 3
months.

If you'd like to demo your project in the live Demonstration Theatre, a
concept that worked so well last year, please check out
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G2008_Demos and let Tim (cc'd) know what
you'd like to demo and when.
The demo theatre will be right inside the exhibition hall.

The FOSS4G venue is big so there's no chance we won't let you in (when you've
paid). But please register online if you can to help with our planning.
See you in Cape Town next week!

most LOC members is probably a once-off yet very gratifying labour of love.
As far as the conference committee goes, I think it’s essential to retain as
many past chairs / LOC members as are willing, but that membership should be
supplemented by any wiling CM.
