[OSGeo-Discuss] GeoConnexions column -- see your name in print!

[Michael P. Gerlek]

In order to estimate a cost, the magazine people need to know (exactly) how much each insert (DVD + sleeve?) weighs.  Anyone with a good scale?

Paulo,
A LiveDVD already exists! It was handed out at the FOSS4G 2008 booth, 
and we have handed it out at a few Australian conferences.

Also, every delegate at FOSS4G 2009 will be given a LiveDVD.

Details about the DVD are at:
