[OSGeo-Discuss] regional conferences

[nicolas bozon]

Hello Stefano,

Sorry, i've listed only 'northern' med countries (greece is not northern i
guess ?), because i am not aware if there are local chapters at the south
or east, that's why i said 'may be others' too [?]  (OSGeo probably needs a
map of local chapters and members by the way)

I fully agree that such an event could gather regular euro osgeo folks as
well as new comers, and would be a great occasion to form new local
chapters for sure. +1
By the way, do you know if there are osgeo initiative in 'fer' East med or
Maghreb already ? Sorry for my ignorance.

Best,

Nick
