Hi John,

If there is a particular project that you feel comfortable with giving a
talk/tutorial/presentation, I think other people will find it useful...

I guess this all depends on what people are willing to volunteer for in GIS
Day...

In my case:

- I would be willing to do a presentation on any OSGeo topic I think I can
help with
- Work on a particular project (would have to be related to
GDAL/Django/Tracking) or better yet, I need to do a windows installer for a
particular project of mine <https://github.com/RBURHUM/arcgis-ogr>.
- Do a small tutorial about a particular OSGeo project

- Ragi
