Partly what prompted me raising this
question was the "About FOSS4G"<br
class="gmail_msg">
section in this news announcement <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.osgeo.org/node/1752"
rel="noreferrer" class="gmail_msg"
target="_blank">http://www.osgeo.org/node/1752</a>
which<br class="gmail_msg">
is for a conference in a continent
which FOSS4G reportedly doesn't<br
class="gmail_msg">
visit. "FOSS4G rotates around the
world each year, throughout 3<br
class="gmail_msg">
regions of the Americas, Europe, and
Asia/South Pacific."<br
class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
In specific documents like the RFP,
we could use "North America, Rest<br
class="gmail_msg">
of World, and Europe" and in generic
things like news announcements we<br
class="gmail_msg">
could say something like "FOSS4G
rotates around the world each year,<br
class="gmail_msg">
having visited five continents so
far".<br class="gmail_msg">
