<br>
I must admit, I think you are mixing "OPENGEO" with "AfricaGEO" and<br>
"OSGeo" throughout your message (and "FOSSGIS" is also an event in<br>
Germany, I was really confused), so it took me a little to understand<br>
you ha. </blockquote><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Ok I can see how my wonky message was totally confusing! In an attempt at clearing up the confusion I have edited the subject line for this thread. My apologies.</div>
