This page describes key users groups to target for the FOSS4G Conference and hence the program that should be covered.

The 2009 theme is "User Driven". Targeting users will increase OSGeo adoption and FOSS4G attendance.

In order to increase attendance, we will encourage interested user groups to have meetings before or during the conference.
