I request that this never happens again.  These 'invite only' meetings 
by the LOC at FOSS4G2009 left many of us who were not invited to 
meetings like 'GeoSpatial Businesses' (including myself and others that 
I know) feel that we were unwanted, after traveling across the world and 
spending so much money to be there.  These meetings are a good idea, but 
they must be open to everyone to attend.
