<p>This may be of interest to members - it is likely that FOSS4G
2026 will be in Hiroshima, Japan. <br>
</p>
<p>There will probably be an announcement after the vote closes on
31st Jan. <br>
</p>
<p>If you are interested in keeping up with plans for the
international conference (or OSGeo more generally) anyone can sign
up to the osgeo-board and conference_dev lists - you don't have to
be a member. <br>
</p>
<p>Best wishes,<br>

Dear OSGeo Board members,<br>
<br>
Following our face2face meeting in Belem and the conversation on
the Conference Committee mailing list [1], we kindly ask the board
to award the organization of the FOSS4G 2026 conference to
Hiroshima LOC. All the CC members that participated in the
discussion are in favor of such a decision. Please help us with a
formal motion on Loomio.<br>
<br>
Warm regards,<br>
Vasile (in the name of the Conference Committee)<br>
