I registered for the conference long ago and therefore I didn't do that for the B2B. I hope this is possible also on site.

Guido, please, can you confirm?

Best regards,

Maria

Thanks Maria, there have been so many emails/meetings I did not find that when I gathered up the details.

Q: Have you registered for FOSS4G yet? If so did you register for the B2B function?

I am happy to make a motion to cover your costs to attend the B2B function(you are formally representing us after all). I think it may be smarter to make one motion for "foss4g expenses" to cover your b2b registration, breakfast meeting, incidentals.

We will also need to coordinate booth materials with marketing once we have this new branding delivered.

Dear Jody

I already gave my availability in attending the B2B meeting. I wonder if this cost is covered by OSGeo. Please is it  possible to confirm that?

Best,

Maria

I have gathered up feedback form email, conversations, and a bit of direction from venka onto the wiki: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2017_Booth#OSGeo_Meetings_and_Events

This gives us a day by day breakdown, start time, contact point / organizer for each activity.

Thanks to everyone who has volunteered, while it will be a busy week I am glad we are sharing the workload.

I had two gaps in our story:
- We do not have a specific organizer for the F2F meeting Monday, I have penciled in Helena as our vice president.
- I could not remember if we have volunteer for the B2B meeting Tuesday afternoon; this is an extra expense to attend, but important for us to be present (both to promote our foundation, but also our partners).

Status update from this mornings hangout:

We were able to sort out a time schedule for AGM and Closing.
- There is more time available for the General Meeting than anticipated, considering inviting partners to speak
- A solid effort will be required to reach out to local chapters this year
- LOC requested we focus on an OSGeo intro + status update during closing
- We also discussed the creation of additional awards; aligned with our goals...
- https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Annual_General_Meeting_2017

FOSS4G Booth and time commitments
- structure has changed, moving from hallways to a more centralized location
- Marc has proposed setting up a larger common area with neighbours (LocationTech etc...) to create a hang out space
- https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2017_Booth

Meetings and time management:
- Monday 18:00 is the only slot free for f2f meeting<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Face_to_Face_Meeting_Boston_2017> (other board members have workshop commitments). Guido will look into either a conference room (plus takeout) or a restaurant with a function room.
- Ice Breaker - we are still good to combine forces here with for sponsor networking event
- We have a meeting with sponsors pending, may be able to combine into a meeting with sponsors and partners. Looking for a breakfast meeting Wednesday?
