[OSGeo-Announce] FOSS4G-Europe 2014 -- Early Bird Registration extended to May 30

[Anne Ghisla]

It's been a busy few weeks as things start to come together for FOSS4G 
Europe 2014 -- but now, admittedly with some delay, we have managed the 
challenge of compiling an exciting program, to be published over the 
next days.

To give everyone time to have a look at the schedule before booking, 
we've extended the Early Bird registration deadline to May 30, 
2014.

In the meantime, many thanks to all who submitted abstracts -- it 
has been a challenge to select the best of all excellent submissions 
passed in the last weeks. Altogether, the conference received about 78 
abstracts in the general and 16 for the academic track. Every abstract 
has been carefully evaluated by the program committee to obtain a fair 
ranking.

On the whole there has been a very satisfying presence of topics 
relating to the relevant Open-Source- tools like GeoServer, MapServer, 
Zoo, rasdaman, Grass, and several more. As well OGC-standards like WMS, 
WMS, WCS, WCPS, WPS, and SOS have the attention of the community. All
in all the bandwidth of proposals shows a good representation of the 
general trends in the geospatial world. In addition the Local
Organizing Committee has secured facilities to run additional workshops
and a code sprint during the conference.

A lot of registrations form Europe and beyond have poured in already,
so make sure you are part of the crowd in this visionary European geo 
happening. Sign in now! http://www.foss4g-e.org/
