Many countries’ financial year ends at the end of December and AFAIK many have a plan to pay the registration from next years budget. I already heard about concerns on this matter. Recalling previous global FOSS4G conferences, we usually closed the Early Bird 3 months before the main conference. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Kind regards, </span></p><p class=MsoNormal>신상희<span lang=EN-US><br>---<br>Shin, Sanghee<br>Gaia3D, Inc. - The GeoSpatial Company<br>www.gaia3d.com </span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"굴림",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='mso-element:para-border-div;border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal style='border:none;padding:0cm'><b>보낸 사람<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US><a href="mailto:markiliffe@gmail.com">Mark Iliffe</a><br></span><b>보낸 날짜<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US>2017</span>년<span lang=EN-US> 10</span>월<span lang=EN-US> 12</span>일 목요일 오전<span lang=EN-US> 5:07<br></span><b>받는 사람<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US><a href="mailto:shfeldman@gmail.com">Steven Feldman</a><br></span><b>참조<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US><a href="mailto:conference_dev@lists.osgeo.org">conference_dev@lists.osgeo.org</a><br></span><b>제목<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US>Re: [OSGeo-Conf] Early bird limit date for FOSS4G 2018</span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"굴림",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hi Even,</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>This is our early bird offer.
