[OSGeo-Conf] FOSS4G 2024 - BRAZIL (BRASIL)

[massimiliano cannata]

Hi Tatiana,
I do not have any voting rules on this committee, but I do support your
proposal.

I do not see any main issue in not having official osgeo chapter in Brasil
as long as you are supporting and promoting foss4g.

Best
Maxi
