<div>I think Portland, since no one else knows what PDX stands for.<br>
<br>
</div>
Other themes includes Roses and Bridges.<br>
<br>
</div>
Bridges might be an interesting theme, we could somehow link it to bridging the gap between COTS software, bridging communities of practice, bridging skill sets, all sorts of possibilities...<br>

Portland or PDX? PDX. What makes PDX unique? Beer. The Merry Men of PDX. Beer!<br>

<div>
<div class="h5"><br>
I'd like to brainstorm ideas about promoting FOSS4G 2014.<br>
<br>
What should our theme be? There could be a serious theme pertaining<br>
to content (I've heard user focus suggested) as well as a fun theme<br>
pertaining to location/identity. Nottingham's Robin Hood theme worked<br>
very well for the location/identify theme.<br>
<br>
What makes Portland soo Portland? Bikes? Put a bird on it? Trees?<br>
Smallest park in the world (I'm told this is no longer true or<br>
contested)? What else?<br>
<br>
Are we Portland or PDX?<br>
<br>
Once we collect some of this information, then we can craft it into<br>
press releases, promotional videos, etc.<br>
<br>
What are your thoughts?<br>
<br>
Eli<br>
