[Journal] Feedback: [FOSS4G Proceedings] foss4g proceedings guidelines

[Tyler Mitchell (OSGeo)]

Hi Julien,
We will do our best to ensure that figures are readable for hardcopy.  
If there are some ways you can help to do this - i.e. cropping or  
zooming in, then it would be appreciated.  At this point I do not see  
any reason to limit the number of figures, but we do want there to be  
sufficient focus on the text.

You are welcome to include an abstract, but not required to.  We will  
have to discuss the use of keywords as well, and get back to you.

Sincerely,
Tyler
