<div>My point is simply it's a joint FOSS4G and State of the Map, and the OpenStreetMap talks, workshops, community day shouldn't need to be strictly free and open source (of course, it's nicer if they are, but I and other people coming from the SotM side are likely still interested in hearing about commercial and proprietary things which are happening with OSM).<br></div>

I have definitely been thinking there would be an audience for
'hybrid' solutions, possibly even could be a focused session on day 2 for OZRI attendees to check out (another conversation for later?).</span></span></span><br></p></div>
