Report back from representing OSGeo at foss4g-asia
- Jody represented OSGeo at the event.
- Keynote and interacting with politicians was slightly stressful but fine
- Not very much awareness of OSGeo sponsorship
- Opportunities for MOU with Project PLATEAU (need follow up)
- Booth was out of the way, but productive for:
- Setting up new local chapters (folks were not clear that they can just set up informally first, and then move on to recognition)
- Joining OSGeo as a member; the sign in form was terribly hard for anyone to figure out (barrier to entry). The workflow is hard to difficult? Tom suggest looking at OGC page?
- Jody did make some improvement to the form which will help: https://id.osgeo.org/ldap/create
- People specifically requested a video on how to do this (so they could pause)
- Encouraging projects to join
- Keynote and interacting with politicians was slightly stressful but fine
- ZOO-Project funding was not approved in time for the event, not even standing funds for an OSGeo project? Microsoft supported the project and was thanked.
