>>    Hi Steven and colleagues,
>> I have a couple of follow-up questions for you.
>> 1) Do you know when the 2019 proceedings will be available?
>> 2) Would you be opposed to us printing the FOSS4G proceedings? If possible, we'd like to print any and all FOSS4G proceedings for our customers. We have a handful of large, national library of science customers (i.e The British Library, The German National Library of Science and Technology, The National Diet Library of Japan, among others) that request printed proceedings. In circumstances where there is no print available, we try to obtain permission to create a print-on-demand book. You would retain 100% copyright ownership, and we would cover the entire cost of production/distribution. Does this sound like something that you could agree to?
>> Have a nice day!
