Meeting

The board has been discussing the idea of getting people together for a face-to-face meeting to establish, and work on, priorities. A meetup / workshop needs clear goals. If we could set them, this could be a really useful occasion.

When and Where

June 11th and 12th at the Autodesk San Rafael offices.

This is just preceeding the Where 2.0 conference June 13/14 in San Jose which is relatively nearby. (According to Google, San Rafael to San Jose is 67 miles / 74 minutes.)

Attendees

Board members and committee members of VisCom, WebCom and the Fundraising committees are encouraged to attend.

  • Frank Warmerdam will attend.
  • mpg could attend as a VisCom person (I will be at Where 13th-14th, unless I have to be at the OWS kickoff 13th-16th)
  • Arnulf Christl will attend
  • Jo Walsh will attend
  • please add availability for other people

Goals

For a one- or two- day meeting there need to be clear goals identifiable.

WebCom:

  • OSGeo Web style established.
  • Project style guidelines.
  • Content plan completed.

Board:

  • Briefing by Mark Lucus on open source related activities within DOD.
  • Develop a 2005/2006 budget.
  • General strategy discussions.
  • Try to reach consensus on new projects to admit to incubation.

VisCom:

  • Prepare conference presentation materials (for Where 2.0, and more general use).
  • General strategy discussions.
