yes I already responded to this a while ago on the board list and yes Charlie Schweik is interested in publishing the 2016 proceedings through the same OSGeo journal platform as 2017 proceedings managed by UMass library.
So I suggest that Franz-Josef contacts Charlie (cc-d here) to make the arrangements.

Already in the beginning of this year Franz-Josef asked me if I would be willing to copy-edit the OSGEO journal edition for the 2016 proceedings, but since then the OSGEO board is either not willing or not capable of making any decision. They seem to be able to endlessly discuss voting procedures or the merits of cooperation with LocationTech, but a simple decision on funding our own OSGEO-Journal is apparently beyond them...
