GenericOSGeoPresentation

This document is an outline representing a generic "Introduction to OSGeo" sort of presentation. Our intention here is not to actually provide the presentation, but rather to provide fodder which can be mashed into a real slide deck -- obviously, different people will have different needs and styles of presenting. For example, we might have a house mix, a 12" dance mix, a spoken word version, etc.

Bold is used for content to be customized by the mixer.

Italics is used for content still tobe developed.
