[Board] Re: [Foss4g2009] OSGeo AGM at FOSS4G?

[Jeroen Ticheler]

Hi All,
I like the idea of just having the committees present and have more  
time for discussion around that. Projects can indeed very well do  
their state of the art presentations during the conference. The AGM is  
kind of the only moment for committees, sponsors, board and so to  
connect face to face.
And indeed schedule it during the first days somewhere instead of all  
the way at the end.
Ciao,
Jeroen
