[Board] FOSS4G/SotM Oceania, Melbourne, 21-24 Nov 2018

[Jody Garnett]

Hello John, that is great news!

If you are organizing as a member of the OSGeo Australian New Zealand local
chapter then you are good to go, although you may prefer to use the local
chapter logo. That is the main formal relationship we do ...

Indeed we are happy to send, or print locally, OSGeo materials. Something
you can coordinate with our marketing committee.

The FOSS4G brand is open for use, it is not the sole custody of OSGeo. Each
time we use the conference brand we try and include the small “ribbon”
element in the resulting logo (for team spirit and cheerful).

We are actually in a board meeting this weekend, so I will add your request
to tomorrow’s addenda.

I am really glad to see a Melbourne event. I had the pleasure of both
organist the last FOSS4G-AU in Brisbane, and attending the recent QGIS user
day in Sydney. There is lots to be done.
