[Ottawa_users] Calendar of events

[Sampson, David]

I propse we embed a calendar of sorts in our website OR wiki,

That way we can keep track of all these events and help plan our time.

Goolge has a decent  one, but if there is a wiki ready one that OSGEO
provides that would be cool too.

Does anyone want to look inot this.

Googles can be found here:

FYI - perhaps we'll think about whether or not a presence at this kind
of event is useful/reasonable/ feasible.
