                        to cancel my trip.<br>
                        I hope someone will come forward and take the

                        which is still scheduled.<br>
                        I can still assist remotely if necessary. For
                        example, I can prepare USB sticks with the
                        latest version 9.5 as a ready to use VM, and
                        ship them in advance to whomever volunteers to

                          Thanks for your follow-up. Here [1] are the
                          details I entered for the short course.<br>
                          <br>
                          So far we have a few volunteers [2] who are
                          willing to take on parts of the presentation.
                          I have contacted Mike Smith about financing a
                          batch of USB drives to hand out to SC
                          participants. He seems willing to reimburse if
                          I purchase and prepare the disks. I have no
                          idea how many disks to buy. Any input from
                          people who participated in earlier EGU events
                          is welcome.<br>
                          <br>
                          So we're good to go, so far. Just looking for
                          more people to join and do part of the
                          demo/tutorial. I'll initiate direct contact
                          with those who expressed an interest, and try
                          to finalize the list of presenters.<br>

                        <pre>Hi Micha, all,

I just wanted to ask about the current status of the planning for the Short Courses. 

As far as I understand the dates remain to be settled (or Copernicus will do this) and volunteers to present OSGeo projects in the course(s) need to be found. By now everybody who submitted abstracts should have gotten feedback regarding acceptance so we can determine who'll be able to attend the meeting and might be willing to volunteer.
My knowledge about Short Courses is limited. Do we have anybody in the group who participated or presented in EGU Short Courses in the past ? This would be very usefuly information about how to make the most of the Short Courses, the Townhall and the sessions.

FWIW, the EGU GA continues to grow. In the 2016 the number of abstracts rose by 2000 to about 17.000 abstracts for all Divisions. Chances are good we will meet many FOSS-interested scientists in Vienna :-)

Best,
Peter
