[California] 2018 Planning

[Alex M]

Jeff,

Sounds like a great idea. Looks like you've just volunteered to be in
charge (In case it's not obvious this chapter is a do-acracy, there is
no official leadership). Maybe you'd like to solicit volunteers for a
planning group from the chapter. Anyone want to help Jeff plan for OSGeo
activities for this conference?

Looks like Jane could be the liaison with the conference.

Thanks,
Alex
