Sydney, Australia. 28 January 2009.

Sponsorship and Exhibition packages are now available to be purchased  
for the international FOSS4G conference, to be held at the Sydney  
Convention and Exhibition Centre from 20-23 October 2009. http:// 
2009.foss4g.org/sponsorship/

FOSS4G is the international "gathering of tribes" for open source  
geospatial communities, where developers and users show off their  
latest software and projects. The theme for 2009 is "User Driven",  
highlighting the power of Open Source to integrate with existing  
systems. The OGC's Climate Change Integration Plugfest (CCIP) to be  
launched will demonstrate standards based interoperability between  
Open Source and Proprietary geospatial applications. The CCIP will be  
a major draw-card for Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) sponsors  
looking for standards based spatial solutions. http://

that will extend your exposure well before and beyond the Conference
