    <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 trace down from OSGeo Priorities to OSGeo Sponsor
      activities.</p>
    <p>Maybe help with refining the OSGeo website.<br>
    </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>
    <br>
    (This is just a few random thoughts off the top of my head, I'm sure
    others could think of more)<br>
    <br>
    Warm regards, Cameron<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
