OSGeo Standards list added - please ignore if you are not interested in<br>
INSPIRE.<br>
<br>
<br>
All,<br>
I have added the OSGeo standards mailing list to this mail so that we<br>
have an archive to which we can point new interested people. Please make<br>
sure that you are on that list because all follow-up mails will only go<br>
there. (Let me know off list if you cannot/want-not join the mailing<br>
list, then I'll keep you in BCC).<br>
<br>
I have fleshed out and slightly modified the OSGeo Wiki Workshop page<br>
and removed the section about the paper which was not accepted. At the<br>
bottom you find a list of people actively attending the workshop. PLEASE<br>
ALSO INVITE PEOPLE '''YOU''' BELIEVE ARE INTERESTED! Please make sure<br>
that you add yourself to this list if you come to Florence! I can help<br>
if you have no account, just send me your name and affiliation:<br>
<a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/INSPIRE_conference_2013" target="_blank">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/INSPIRE_conference_2013</a><br>
<br>
I have personally invited 30+ individuals now from public<br>
administrations of the member states, academia and software providers to<br>
give lightning-talk style presentations at the workshop (as noted on the<br>
Wiki page). Pleas feel free to forward the invitation as noted there.<br>
<br>
<br>
My role during the workshop will be to give a short introduction and<br>
then moderate the talks and following dialog.<br>
<br>
<br>
Everybody fine with this procedure?<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Arnulf<br>
