          <br>
          Great timing, I have just finished collecting those ideas for
          the website/rebranding push.<br>
          <br>
          Open Geospatial<br>
          <br>
          OSGeo is pleased to be at the forefront of the shift towards
          open geospatial:<br>
          <br>
               *   Open Source: securing a collaborative approach to
          software development.<br>
               *   Open Data: providing freely available information to
          use as you wish.<br>
               *   Open Standards: enabling interoperable software to
          avoid lock-in.<br>
               *   Open Education: removing the barriers to learning and
          teaching.<br>
          <br>
          Together these approaches define a new way of addressing the
          world's needs. OSGeo is pleased to celebrate our partners and
          friends shaping this future.<br>
          <br>
          (Insert partner logos here, and friends such as OSM)<br>
          <br>
          I hope that helps? I like that we are hitting the same ideas /
          concepts.<br>

          Dear colleagues,<br>
          <br>
          This is a request for help as I need inputs from the wider
          community to get more ideas for my presentation at
          FOSS4G-Europe 2017 later this month.<br>
          <br>
          My keynote presentation will be on “The future of Geo is Open”
          and I would like to invite ideas/inputs for this. It is also
          an good time to reflect on the developments in Open Geospatial
          Science [1],[2],[3] as it is over a decade now since we
          started working on the philosophy of Openness in Geospatial
          Science  and Education.<br>
          <br>
          I am looking forward to discussing new ideas with you all at
          FOSS4G-Europe 2017.<br>
          <br>
          Best wishes,<br>
