[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo sponsorship opportunities for 2018

[Till Adams]

Dear Jody,

many thanks for this information! Indeed you missed one upcoming event.

In parallel to the OSGeo codesprint from 21.-24.th of March the FOSSGIS
conference will take place in Bonn. We have 450 attendees and with that
one of the bigger events in our OSGeo-calendar.

We have quite some sponsors:

What must we do in order to get these sponsors cross listed as
OSgeo-sponsors?


Thanks, Till
