[Foss4g2009] A helping hand.

[Doug White]

Hi All,

Just joined the mailing list and I am happy the assist where possible 
with tasks etc for conference. I am still digesting the wiki in stages 
so bare with me while I come up to speed, it seems everyone has been 
very busy!

One thing that came to mind... are there any documentation requirements 
for the LiveCD or workshop sessions?  Maybe I could help there?
Noted thread on relationship with SSI 
(http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/foss4g2009/2009-January/000639.html) - 
as a member I might be able to help here as well.

A little background...
I suppose my interests revolve mainly around integrated solutions and 
data migration/management. I've been working with open source software 
for a-spatial data management and services for a number of years and 
have more recently shifted my focus back to geospatial applications 
(FWTools, web applications, etc).  I am particularly interested in the 
application and promotion of OS software for value adding existing 
commercial and non-commercial systems.

I have good deal of experience within Local Government IT realms and 
think that there should be a fair amount of interest in this conference 
from that sector in particular.  Happy to make some phone calls to 
discuss/promote conference among contacts.

I look forward to getting involved.
