[OSGeo-Discuss] South African safety situation

[Paolo Cavallini]

Hi all.
I'm informed, both from the newspapers and from South African friends, 
that there are serious concerns about safety in South Africa. Of course 
this will not affect FOSS4G directly, but I'm sure many of us are 
planning to have some holidays before or after the conference, so not 
being able to tour around freely will detract much from the appeal of 
the conference. This could result in less participation, thus in turn in 
lower general interest.
Any news or indications from local organizers? I think this is a problem 
that should be dealt with, for the best success of the meeting.
All the best.
