"OSMF organised conferences (State Of The Map) should continue to be at least self-financing." http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Board_Meeting_Minutes_2013-12-10 As long as this continues then I see no reason to believe that SOTM will stop (especially this years which has already been confirmed to be held in Buenos Aires): https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2014/01/12/buenos-aires-hosts-sotm14/ Hold tight, these things take time to organise. If you are able to help, then get in touch with Henk who will appreciate the help. Rob
