[OSGeo-Discuss] FOSS4G in Ecuador?

[Cameron Shorter]

Guillermo,

If you wish to start with a presentation about the stack of open source 
GIS software, you might want to draw upon the OSGeo-Live presentation:

https://live.osgeo.org/en/presentation/index.html#/

Feel free to change it any way you like.

Warm regards, Cameron
