RE: [OSGeo-Board] Re: GIS Development in Africa

Are there any volunteers from the Board or VisCom? I believe we already
put out a call for this once, but didn't get any takers.

Hi MPG,

During FOSS4G2006 Assefa of DM Solutions
expressed interest to participate in
Map Africa.

I wonder if he has time to go there.
The conference is from 20-22 Nov, 2006
(http://mapafrica.gisdevelopment.net/)
Guess we have have to decide soon and
inform Sanjay about possibility of
participation.

Sanjay has been a supporter if OSGeo and
has been highlighting recent OSGeo developments
in his portal
(http://www.gisdevelopment.net/news/viewn.asp?id=GIS:N_timrdqobnf)

I think Map Africa is a good forum to promote
OSGeo. Unfortunately, I will not be able to
participate in this event.

Kind regards

Venka

Hi Sanjay,

Not certain yet about who from OSGeo will be participating
at Map Africa. Are the schedules and Venue known? Perhaps
Yassefa of DM Solutions could be a good panelist from
OSGeo side. There are also active OSGeo members stationed
in Africa who would be able to talk about FOSS/OSGeo
initiatives in Africa.

I'm hoping to be at the Autodesk University conference the following week and wouldn't be able to swing both, otherwise I would certainly be game.

Hi There,

  Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the conference. If Sanjay or others could participate and promote OSGeo, It would be great.

Best Regards,

Hi Sanjay,

Not certain yet about who from OSGeo will be participating
at Map Africa. Are the schedules and Venue known? Perhaps
Yassefa of DM Solutions could be a good panelist from
OSGeo side. There are also active OSGeo members stationed
in Africa who would be able to talk about FOSS/OSGeo
initiatives in Africa.
