Excellent!  Having most info on the OSGeo wiki also makes it easier for 
future FOSS4G local committees to learn from you.

Also a little reminder, for every new page that you create on the wiki 
be sure to paste this text at the bottom of every page (so your page can 
be found and automagically listed with all other FOSS4G2016 pages):

   [[Category:FOSS4G2016]]

I would like an account on the internal wiki also.

aha! I added the missing category to your meetings page (so that your 
meetings page is automagically listed at 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:FOSS4G2016).

Also, I'd like to make a request to the entire 2016 local committee to 
please please consider storing all copies of files (logos, text 
documents, sponsor documents, raw designer files for logos, website 
files, everything) in SVN at http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:FOSS4G2016

If you go up a directory, you can see that we/I archive files all the 
way back to 2003 for FOSS4G events, and each year a new FOSS4G local 
committee member thanks me for this (it's great to find a logo or 
document).   However you can also notice that not every local committee 
listens to my request (so some years are empty).  Let's raise the bar 
for 2016!

If you need write permission for this SVN instance just let me know 
(I'll need your OSGeo user ID: http://www.osgeo.org/osgeo_userid).

Thanks,

-jeff
