Hi Michael,<br>
Congratulations, and welcome to the FOSS4G club.<br>
<br>
A number of us have been slowly building a FOSS4G Handbook, which
hopefully should be of value as you go through the process of
running the conference:<br>
<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Handbook" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Handbook</a><br>
<br>
In it we have been collating some of the best practice ideas we have
been coming across. It is far from complete, but I'd encourage you
to ask questions on this list as you reach certain milestones, and
if it is not covered in the cookbook, we can add it at the time.<br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<div><div class="h5"><br>

the open geo community.</div>
