[OSGeo-Discuss] Call For papers Geospatial devroom @FOSDEM 2016

[Cameron Shorter]

Has someone proposed an OSGeo-Live presentation at FOSDEM?
I can't see it listed here [1].

We find that variants on the OSGeo-Live presentation [1] are regularly 
presented by members of the OSGeo community wanting to provide a high 
level overview of OSGeo. It is often presented by members of the 
organising committee.

Do we have any volunteers to present OSGeo-Live at FOSDEM 2016?

Johan, I think you were looking at a dev-room. Was that involving 
OSGeo-Live in some way?
