Folks,

conf-dev is the mailing list for the OSGeo Conference Committee.  This
is the committee, chaired by Jeff, that is responsible for selecting
the annual conference venue, setting broad year-to-year requirements
and policies.  It is also an excellent place to mine for volunteers
that don't need to be local, and suggestions/feedback/input from those
with experience running various aspects of FOSS4G conferences in the
past.

But the OSGeo Conference Committee does not *operate* FOSS4G itself.
This is done by the local organizing committee.

Yes, that seems appropriate.

As Arnulf suggests, I'm liable to get grumpy when I find that OSGeo
related planing and decisions are needlessly done in private forums.

Best regards,
