[Ica-osgeo-labs] BOF in Portland

[Charles Schweik]

Hi,

I unfortunately will not be there because I am running a "Knowledge
Commons" conference at New York University. :-(

That said, if I WERE there, my vote would be to combine them. In my view,
the OSGeo Education group and the GeoForAll group are one and the same, and
other FOSS4G educators should become engaged in this same community.

My two cents,

Cheers,
Charlie Schweik
