David,
If you do decide to hold a face-to-face meeting, you might want to tack
it onto the end of an existing conference which many of you are already
attending.
Ideally (from my perspective as the foss4g chair) you will consider
foss4g as the perfect conference for a get together. October 20-23 2009.

There are "Birds of a Feater" sessions at the foss4g conference set
aside for such networking.

Greetings all,
Several of us have just returned from a series of interoperability
experiments hosted by the National Defense University and the Naval
Postgraduate School focusing on pulling NGOs together in response to
disasters. As part of these conversations, yet again, the topic of
Open Aerial Map was brought to the forefront. It appears as though
there may be an opportunity to provide travel and accommodations
support if we were to have a desire/need to have a face-to-face meetup
to see what we can do to bring OAM back online in a sustainable (human
and technology) fashion. If we were to seek this funding, I would
want to be able to go to them with a very clear plan of what we were
trying to accomplish. In addition, if there were any "players" in the
world that we might want to get involved, this could be a good
opportunity to bring them in.
Thoughts?
