[OSGeo-Discuss] Upper Midwest Geospatial Conference

[Cameron Shorter]

Hi David,
You might want to reach out directly to some of the people from the 
OSGeo Advocate List who live nearby.

Others, if you are not on this list, but would like to be, feel free to 
sign yourself up:

If you are introducing a new community to OSGeo, you might want to have 
a speaker (maybe yourself), give a variant on the OSGeo-Live presentation:

Warm regards, Cameron
