It is exciting to hear amazing developments from all of you. I was especially impressed by Silviana and Arlette updates on Brazil activities esp. the news that over 10 Brazilian Universities joining our network soon. This scale of expansion is what we need for accelerating efforts. Well done to all of you for actively promoting this.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Could I request all of you to include a slide of ICA-OSGeo Lab network in all of your presentations at conferences, events etc that you are attending. That is the main way for people for new universities to know about this initiative and join us. We need to get the message across to more universities.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks to Manuel and colleagues for their efforts for the website.
