<div dir="ltr">Hi all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In a philosophical, but productive discussion at today's
meeting, there was clear support for the Wellington proposal.
Obviously there is much work to do to firm this up and
determine many of the details around what this would look
like, but given that:</div>
<div>
<ol>
<li>we have a very solid proposal on the table, from a
proponent who is intimately familiar with what it has
taken to create the event we're about to put on, and with
substantial support already committed from individuals and
organisations</li>
<li>we have no other proposals (acknowledging that we don't
have a robust process in place to solicit these, but I
posit that at this point, if anyone was seriously
interested in putting together a bid for 2019, they would
have raised it by now)</li>
<li>having the conference in NZ would reinforce our status
as an international event, serving to establish a good
basis for continuing to brand ourselves as 'Oceania'</li>
<li>LINZ has been a supporter of this event from early on,
and is historically a very strong adopter of open source
geospatial</li>
<li>as the national capital, we might expect a high local
turnout from Wellington (Canberra/ACT is <i>by far</i> our
highest per-capita source of attendees in 2018, at least
27 from a population of 420000)</li>
<li>by making this decision now, we clear the way for making
an announcement next week, when it will have the most
impact</li>
</ol>
<div>I'd like to put forward a motion: <b>that we confirm our
support for Wellington as the destination for this event
in 2019</b>.</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>+1 from me. What say you?<br>

move forward by email over the following few days before we
kick off. I've put it on <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZmCKjEgYoR4cVYgdjDgEKt3DQV-NTJ52_h1ACeLHHCg/edit#" target="_blank">this Friday's
