<p>Hi Guido,</p>
<p>Sorry, no quick fix from me. My actual advise is to focus on
other marketing areas where you will gain more value for effort.
In particular, trying to keep track of all geospatial events,
including ESRI events, worldwide, is probably not the first thing
I'd try tackle.<br>
</p>
<p>Maybe help set up and stream line the process for approving
requests for sponsorship from the marketing committee?</p>
<p>Maybe contributing toward maintaining and improving the
OSGeo-Live quickstarts, or the proposed OSGeo-Live notebooks?</p>
<p>Maybe help improve the translation process within OSGeo-Live
docs. (Ideas have been floated in how to do this, we just need
follow through from someone to make it happen)<br>
</p>
Maybe review the OSGeo-Advocate list and clean up areas where people
are not fitting in with guidelines. (For the most part, this is
pretty good).<br>
<br>
Maybe flesh out the contents of the FOSS4G Handbook.<br>

<div>Right now it's a git repo which allows anyone to make and

technical people involved, but I think we will need to make it

<div>I think it would be useful to make a way for people to tie
into this page with meetup or other event sites. (eventbrite,
lanyrd, etc..)</div>

</div>
<div>For the moment it's a proof of concept to show that a nice
clean list would be a great start.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>also... I didn't add it yet, but I assume we should be
adding the esri events on here too... yes? I think having a
listing of all events will make the user community on this
site bigger.</div>

<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> Hi Guido,<br>
Listing geospatial events is a good idea. I've seen a number
of similar initiates start, but not stand the test of time.<br>
Like any web page, the challenge is ensuring it remains
continually up to date. This can be done by either having
static content, or finding someone (or some people) willing
to keep the content up to date.<br>
It also helps to lots of people referencing the material,
which in turn leads to attracting volunteers to keep the
site up to date.<br>
Warm regards, Cameron</div>

Here is a mockup I put together... what do you
