[Board] On my plate

[Tyler Mitchell (OSGeo)]

Hi folks,
Just a quick update on what I'm working on lately.

= Website = 
http://www3.osgeo.org shows the new theme we have and www2 is where our 
current site has been pushed into and I'm connecting the dots.  Working on a 
few outstanding issues, including language translations and there will be some 
new content needed as well.  If you want more details, just let me know.

= Finance =
* Continuing looking at sponsorship invoices, chasing down donors, etc.  See 
also FOSS4G...
* working on quarterly updates in books

= Strategy =
* Resurrecting my strategy notes from previous couple months to help solidify 
the various "working groups" theme we discussed in Barcelona - something for 
people more publicly to through tomatoes at.

= Events =
* FOSS4G 2011: Working closely with Peter to answer questions, focusing on 
sponsorship side of things.  Prospectus out soon (this week likely).  Logo 
selected last week.

* FOSS4G 2010: Wrap up of books looks like we'll get 30k euro from the event!  
Coordinating with organisers to close this off.

* OSGIS Nottingham, June - 1 day of this event will be co-branded OSGeo/OGC 
Interop day.  Looking for presenters and at least 2 workshops on this theme.

* GITA, April - the OSGeo track is confirmed.  I'm working on lining up 
speakers, making good headway.  http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GITA_2011

= Journal =
Not personally doing much on this front but helping hand reigns over to Landon 
Blake who's pulling together this 2009 FOSS4G Proceedings academic papers 
edition.

Soon it will be time for "2010 Annual Report" - anyone interested in leading 
this or have thoughts on how to best handle it?  Otherwise I'll do the same 
old wiki page approach, then collate into a PDF.  
(http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Annual_Report_2009 --> http://osgeo.org/ojs)

Take it easy!
Tyler
