FOSS4G 2009 Press Release 21 Cover

=Translators=

Tuesday 14 July 2009

OSGeo community leaders and translators,

Once again, we are asking for your help to translate one of our major FOSS4G announcements: "FOSS4G Abstracts announced + Early Bird registration looming", which will be released next week, on Monday 20 July.

This press release will be the key reminder to excite and attract delegates to FOSS4G before the Early Bird deadline. So please translate the press release, then forward onto to your local communities.

As feedback, our website traffic spikes 5 to 7 times the usual rate after each of these press releases go out - so they seem to be working.

The press release has been copied to: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2009_Press_Release_21_Translations

As before, we have highlighted the changed text from the last translation in red. If you are aware of a local presentation that has been selected, you might want to add a line to your press release before sending it out. It should add a nice personal touch.

Note: The URL for presentations has not been populated yet. It will be populated before Monday next week.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Cameron Shorter, FOSS4G Organising Committee chair.
