Hi Sergio 
Yes, we are located in Curitiba (UTC -3h), but we can change the time for each webinar. 
The technology is GoToWebinar. In addition to Windows, it also works with Mac, Android and iOS

Yes, great opportunity indeed. I know Mundogeo's experience in organizing these webinars and they are really good. As for Cameron questions (and Suchith's answers) I will add that time/zone will probably depend on the organizers that for the case are from (and in) Brazil (I think they are in Curitiba, -3 UTC). The technology is indeed GoToWebinar but recently we had a discussion with MundoGEO about it because as you may know this technology only works with Windows. If any of you know about an alternative that can also work with Linux that will be great. And MundoGEO will appreciate it much too. All webinars are recorded and you can find past ones here: http://mundogeo.com/webinar/webinar.html . Of course it will be better to have them also in the Labs website.

Dear Suchith (and All)
webinar is a wonderful opportunity! I know that Phil has also many  
experience in webinars (and the infrastructure for delivering them)  
because Rafael Moreno and I gave a webinar on FOSS4G some months ago.

I will disseminate the webinars through ISPRS channels too.

Cheers.
Maria

Hi Cameron,

Thanks. I am ccing this to labs list as your queries are of interest  
to others in our group. Please find my answers below

What size of audience do you expect?  - We are expecting around  
500-1000 participants for our webinars . This estimate is based on  
the stats provided by Eduardo on previous webinar attendance plus  
our plans to disseminate this through both ICA and OSGeo channels.  
Also as the webinars will be in English it will have a global  
audience.

What time/timezone do you expect to present within? As per Eduardo  
mail, the webinars are usually held at 14:00 UTC. We can discuss  
with MundoGeo for rotating timezones.

What technology do you expect to make use of for the webinar?   
MundoGeo will provide the webinar platform , so i think they will be  
using  Gotomeeting http://www.gotomeeting.com/fec/webinar (Eduardo,please correct me if i am wrong).

Do you intend to make use of video (of the presenter)? It is not  
mandatory as slides and audio is fine but if the presenter has  
webcam and wishes to use video then it is fine.

Do you intend to record the session?  Yes, we need to record the  
presentation to archive it and make it available to wider community.  
We can have the webinar recording links stored at both MundoGeo  
website and OSGeo site . For the time being, i will setup a wiki  
site for the webinars. Once Manuel and Rafael gets our website  
ready, we can add links of the Webinar recordings there.

Suchith
