General
- FOSS4G 2006 - Open Source Geospatial Communities JOINT CONFERENCE - September 12-15 2006, Lausanne, Switzerland. This conference will unite the MapServer, GRASS, EOGEO, and other Open Source communities at an international venue.
- See http://www.foss4g2006.org/
To Do
- OSGeo will have booth space
- Will distribute brochures, flyers (see VisCom)
- Do people who are attending not have t-shirts and how can they get them.
- Do we want a demo CD to hand out, during presentations if nothing else (GRASS workshop runs on dedicated liveCD)
- Demofest, to we want to clump togehter, or stange interoptability between products?

- Chris is doing 'Architecting Participation for GeoSpatial Data', touching on geodata committee topics
- Justin is doing a talk on 'GeoServer: a platform for open web services', which will certainly touch on some GeoTools topics.
- Jody is doing "GeoTools Getting Standards to Work" which will server as an intro to standards, and geotools
- Jody is doing "GeoTools working on standards" which will intro working with an open source project and outline risks over the next year
- Steven is doing "Building a high performance webmapping site" which will stress the importance of a WMS-C standard
- Please add your talk title / topic here - there must be dozens, right?
If possible please use the Open Office OSGeo template for your talk. Find other formats and the presentation library in the VisCom Documents section.
Breakout session ideas
- Geospatial Metadata Syndication - see Simple Catalog Interface
- Tiling WMS, some talk of GeoServer and uDig implementation of GetTile
People planning to attend
The OSGeo booth will be a place where most OSGeo folks will go to at one time or another. Ideally we have full coverage of every project by a representative of that project at all times at the booth. To get things organized just a bit we need to have some people at the booth at all times. Please add yourself to the list, even if it is for one morning or evening only so that we can get an overview where it might be critical. Most traffic will be during the breaks and there will be lots of time to chat with others also hangin out at the booth during all those boring sessions going on. So please feel free to drop by.
For questions, contact Arnulf Christl (mailto:arnulf@osgeo.org) or Tina Mena, tina.mena@autodesk.com.
