Hi LOC,
Talked to a friend on mine (Erik Meerburg, from the privatly owned 
"Geo-academy").
Erik is also into 3D maps printing. He's gonna submit a talk on this, 
but also suggested to 3D print a map to be used as a trophee for any of 
our awards.
Find his work on that at www.elevatedmaps.com.
Since printing this is far more costly than printing a regular paper map 
he would like to discuss the possibilities of getting something in 
return.
One of the possibilities that came to our minds was a 1-day booth: for 
small companies such as Erik's staffing a booth 3 day is too much 
effort. A 1-day booth would be perfect for his (a probably other) small 
companies.
So in facts 3 questions
- do we keep the submission date for the map contest open for a while
- do we need trophees for several awards/contests
- is the "1-day booth" a useful idea
Regards,
Gert-Jan
