Who knows how the Community Voting process works?<br>
Could you please write down the process such that future FOSS4G
events don't have to re-invent the wheel.<br>
In particular, it would be great to capture in this section of the
FOSS4G Cookbook:<br>
<a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Cookbook#Selection_and_Evaluation_of_the_Presentations">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Cookbook#Selection_and_Evaluation_of_the_Presentations</a><br>
<br>
There may be other sections of the FOSS4G Cookbook appropriate
ready to populate as well.<br>

<div class="WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal">On behalf of the FOSS4G 2013 Team , I
would like to invite you all for the Community Voting of
presentations for FOSS4G 2013 Nottingham <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://2013.foss4g.org/">http://2013.foss4g.org/</a>
<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">With the submission for presentations for
FOSS4G 2013 now completed, it’s time for the community to vote
on which of them should be accepted for the programme.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">To vote, go to <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://community-review.foss4g.org/">http://community-review.foss4g.org</a>
<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">The voting system is the one which was used
for FOSS4G 2011 and FOSS4G-NA, so you may already be familiar
with it. It allows you to vote for as many presentations as
you like, and presents the proposals in a random order – i.e.
you will see a different order from that seen by anyone else –
in order to eliminate any bias from the order in which the
proposals appear.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">There are over 200 presentations submitted
for FOSS4G 2013, so it is also a good opportunity to see the
excellent range of work done by the community members
worldwide.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Community voting will end on 22nd April,
ahead of the LOC meeting at Nottingham on 24th and 25th April
which will decide the final shape of the programme.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Please note that the Academic Track
reviewing process (full papers submissions for Transactions in
GIS etc.) is done separate from this. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We look forward to your strong
participation and support for <b>FOSS4G 2013 - Geo for All</b>.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Best wishes,<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Suchith<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
