[OSGeo-Conf] Early bird limit date for FOSS4G 2018

[Mark Iliffe]

Hi Even,

This is our early bird offer. We aim to review this process nearer the time to decide on effectiveness of its uptake.

At a basic level, this will be one of the cheapest global FOSS4G in recent times. The programme will be everything that makes our conference great, with an addition of new features. My programme committee will be launching Calls shortly (the academic already been launched) which will provide further info on what we’re building upon.

We have been slightly delayed in this due to the logistics of clearing payments in our host country, but these have been resolved (with a blog about this incoming!). But this will be pushed next week.

I hope this answers your question!

Best,

Mark

In my memories, in previous years, the program was known before the early bird date limit (which may be an important criterion for some people to decide whether they will attend or not), or am I wrong ?
