[OSGeo-Discuss] Get ready for our OSGeo AGM 2021 virtual event on 1 October 2021 14h UTC

[Angelos Tzotsos]

Hello OSGeo Community!

We would like to invite you to our Annual General Meeting (AGM) during 
FOSS4G on Friday, October 1st 2021 from 14h to 15h UTC.

We are happy to meet you at our global FOSS4G conference again, even 
though it will be virtual, instead of face to face.

For 2021, we are introducing a new concept. We would like to publish the 
OSGeo annual update as a video, in advance of the AGM on the OSGeo 
YouTube channel [1]. This way, we will have time for an open discussion 
during the AGM slot at FOSS4G. Thus, all local chapters, projects, 
committees and initiatives are invited to prepare a short video of *1 
minute* to present their status report, updates, COVID-19 impact, future 
plans and last year’s achievements.

We hope you like the idea! However, you have to get active in advance, 
so please take a close look to the timeline below:

Timeline
- 2021-08-30: send us your video and update the AGM slides [2]
- 2021-09-10: AGM 2021 complete video will be published
- 2021-10-01: 11h Argentinian Time Zone (14:00 UTC) Join the AGM 2021 
meeting at FOSS4G [3] [4]

Your AGM video is going to be one minute of fame and shine for our 
community, so don't let it pass! It is important for all of us to know 
what is happening everywhere. OSGeo is huge and this is the best way to 
get a summary of all the amazing work we are doing!

Check this wiki page [5] for an overview of the AGM 2021 and for the 
upload link for your video that we will soon provide. In the wiki, you 
will find all the important information, but don’t hesitate to contact 
us if you have any questions.

Please, don’t forget to also add your information to the AGM slides [2], 
but make sure you use only one (or two) slides per team. If you want to 
edit it and still don't have privileges to do so, please let us know and 
tell us which team you represent so we can provide write access.

Spread the information about the AGM 2021 and save the date!
We hope to see as many of you at the AGM in October.

Stay safe,

Angelos Tzotsos
President of OSGeo
