[OSGeo-Discuss] Libre Graphics Meeting - Montreal, May 4-6

[Alexandre Leroux]

Hi Tyler,

I live in Montreal and am interested in helping the OSGeo with the Libre 
Graphic Meeting. I can't offer much but we can at least host in our home 
for several nights anyone from the OSGeo who wants to attend the Libre 
Graphic Meeting.

We can accomodate at least two people and more is possible (I'll have to 
deal this with my wife). We live 10 minutes away from the École 
Polytechnique de Montréal, where the event will be held.

You can contact me by email but I'll be out of the country from the 14th 
of April to the first of May and won't read my emails during that period.

Cheers!

Alex
