Are you passionate about OSGeo?

Do you know a lot about aspects of Geospatial Open Source, and are 
prepared to stand up in public and talk about it?

Then please consider adding your name to "OSGeo Advocate" list [1].

Background:

With my role on the marketing committee, increased number of foss4g 
related conferences, and with the success of the OSGeo-Live DVD, I'm now 
regularly being asked to recommend speakers who can talk about OSGeo 
related topics. Arnulf, as chair of OSGeo, similarly reports being 
invited to present at more conferences than he can sustain. So the OSGeo 
Marketing committee has created a space to show off the breadth of 
experience amongst our OSGeo community, which at the same time will 
allow conference organisors find local OSGeo experts.

Is this something you can help with? If so, please register [2] within 
the next month, before the end of July 2012, when we intend to 
officially launch.
