Hi,
sounds like a very good idea. From Estonia Jaak has been on several
SOTM-s, I have been visiting SOTM in Amsterdam and Girona, Andres Kaaber
was in Girona I suppose. I would not go into details but we were using
Russian there alot :)

Hi!
A few additions to the mail of Ilia Zverev aka Zverik
In 2011 quite a few participants of the russian OSM forum took part in
the SOTM-EU conference in Vienna. It was an excellent opportunity for
us to meet both OSM "celebrities" and ordinary OSM members.
Last year SOTM was in Japan, this yeart it will be in England with
complicated visa procedure for us. OSM community both in Russia and
Estonia seems to be a closed and isolated circle with a very few new
members each year. So we suggest to break the isolation through an
internatinal OSM meet-up (or mini-conference) in Estonia.
Let's call it for now SOTM Baltic. Zverik mentioned that we had held a
one day local mini-conference in Moscow a year ago. Around 20 people
attended that event. It didn't require many organisational efforts.
The main requirement was to find a room for the event. I suppose the
SOTM Baltic would be an event of the same scale.
I expect that OSM members from Tartu, Tallinn, Sankt Petersburg,
Moscow, Riga and Helsinki might come to the SOTM Baltic.
Looking forward to your feedback.
