[OSGeo-Conf] [OSGeo-Discuss] Invitation for Community Voting of presentations for FOSS4G 2013 Nottingham

[Steven Feldman]

the community voting process has been designed by Paul Ramsey who is running it for us. He is the best person to describe the workings

Big thanks to Paul for this, I don't know how we would have managed without his help

>> With the submission for presentations for FOSS4G 2013 now completed, it’s time for the community to vote on which of them should be accepted for the programme.

>> The voting system is the one which was used for FOSS4G 2011 and FOSS4G-NA, so you may already be familiar with it. It allows you to vote for as many presentations as you like, and presents the proposals in a random order – i.e. you will see a different order from that seen by anyone else – in order to eliminate any bias from the order in which the proposals appear.
>>  
>> There are over 200 presentations submitted for FOSS4G 2013, so it is also a good opportunity to see the excellent range of work done by the community members worldwide.
>>  
>> Community voting will end on 22nd April, ahead of the LOC meeting at Nottingham on 24th and 25th April  which will decide the final shape of the programme.
>>  
>> Please note that the Academic Track reviewing process (full papers submissions for Transactions in GIS etc.) is done separate from this.
>>  
>> We look forward to your strong participation and support for FOSS4G 2013 - Geo for All.
