Several people from OSGeo (and some non-OSGeo) are doing presentations at the conference.

Exhibit Move-in Hours:

Monday, June 12, 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm

Exhibit Show Hours: Tuesday, June 13, 10:00 am – 7:30 pm

(Actual open time: 10-11, 12-2, 3-4:30, 6-7:30 reception)

Exhibit Move-out Hours:

Tuesday, June 13, 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm

Birds of a Feather Gathering

An informal gathering of the open source geospatial community will occur at:

  • Tuesday, June 13
  • now at 8:30 pm - 9:30 pm
  • Location: Plaza Room

Tyler is now running the BOF.

The "agenda" will be something like this:

  • Welcome and Intro (Tyler)
  • "OSGeo and the Open Geodata Project" (5 mins) (Speaker: Jo Walsh)
  • "MapServer" (5 mins) (Speaker: Dave McIlhagga)
  • "GeoTools and MapBuilder" (5 mins) (Speaker: Brent Owens)
  • open discussion (remainder of time, until wee small hours)

The actual agenda will firm up closer to the time, when we get a better feel for who is going to be presenting what on the main stage, e.g. we don't want to repeat a "What is OSGeo" talk -- and who is actually going to be at the conference.

Preference for "Project" speakers will be those who don't get main-stage airtime. Also, note that I'm explicitly including the "Edu" and "OpenData" groups as projects.

Press Event: Developer Roundtable

Section got too big -- moved to separate page: OSGeo at Where PressEvent

Pre-Conference Messaging

OSGeo has the opportunity to email conference attendees who have opted in to receive communications regarding the event. The conference organizers at O'Reilly will provide a list 7-10 days prior to the conference. Chris Holmes has volunteered to craft a message promoting OSGeo activities at Where 2.0 and invite others to join us.

Flyers and Posters

Tyler has taken on gathering content from the current OSGeo projects and producing flyers for each project. Posters for use in the booth are also a possibility...

Look for a one page ad promoting OSGeo in the conference program. It is a minimalist design, as our resources are limited here. The ad will also be repurposed as a flyer and distributed at the booth. Banner ads will also be running on selected O'Reilly web sites.

Library

The following materials will be posted after the conference for re-use at other OSGeo events:

  • Artwork for banners
  • Flyers
  • Posters (if available)
  • Advertisement
  • Banner ads
  • Presentations
  • Presentation template
