9 years ago today was the first ever meeting of the OSGeo foundation, in Chicago U.S.A. (http://www.osgeo.org/content/news/news_archive/open_source_geospatial_foundation_initial_press_release.html.html). Thanks to those passionately involved back then, and the thousands contributing since, now our community has expanded and has reached many countries all over world. Congratulations to everyone for continuing to share the passion for Open Source geospatial.
