Ravi,
we will definitely not be able to get all directors there, thats for
sure now.

But if you can manage to take on my travel costs I will surely come. If
there is an option to give a FOSS business workshop, introduction to
some of OSGeo's software projects or a high level meeting with
managers/directors, public administration representatives who need to be
nudged a bit towards trusting OSGeo fundation and software I'll be happy
to do just that. From what I received off list there seems to be broader
interest iirc Jeff & Jeroen at least hinted towards that. Maybe folks
can speak up again or write to Ravi directly.

Best regards,
Arnulf.

PS:
I left the typo "fundation", sounds good to me.
