<br>
I think Wednesday morning's "OSGeo Sponsors and Partners" breakfast <br>
handles the sponsors and partners well, and that will help us have more <br>
time for giving the spotlight to projects, committees, initiatives, and <br>
local chapters on Thursday morning. 60 minutes is very tight, we know <br>
this from the past 12 years of these ha. Alternatively, we could expand <br>
the AGM to start an hour earlier at 7am local, and then have 2 hours for <br>
all sponsors, partners, projects, committees, initiatives, and local <br>
chapters to speak. (I personally feel that the first option, leveraging <br>
the sponsors/partners breakfast for feedback & spotlight, is better in <br>
this year's case) -jeff<br>
