[OSGeo-Discuss] Association of American Geographers (AAG) Annual Meeting

[Helena Mitasova]

Allan,

I am planning to submit a paper (and I will check with others in the  
growing OSGeo community here in Triangle who may be planning to go  
too) - I think an organized session (or two) would be great if there  
is still time to propose it and I can certainly help with the booth.

Also I am wondering about getting some of the Google SOC students  
there -
those who did not get a chance to be in Victoria - maybe Google could  
support their travel?
We had two very nice projects that would fit very well with this  
conference.
