[Ica-osgeo-labs] BOF GEoForAll EUROPE

[Charles Schweik]

Hi Jeff, all:

Thanks for the update. I'm guessing that was Phil Davis (USA) there and not
me, or a different Charlie, since sadly, I wasn't there! ;-)

Reminder for those going to FOSS4G EU in Como in July - below is the full
GeoForAll meeting times. Mark your calendars!

****************************************************************************

1) *Tuesday July 14th, 8:30-11:30 am - GeoForAll pre-conference meeting*.
Room TBD. Topics:

1a. Certification: Phil Davis has agreed to give us an update on where we
are on the certification discussion and lead further discussion on that
topic. (*Thanks Phil*)
1b. Educational content curation strategies
1c. GeoForAll and its connection to firms.

That's probably enough -- but if anyone has any other pressing issues while
some of us are together let me know.

2) *Thursday July 16th, 5:30 room 3.5 at Politecnico di Milano *--
GeoForAll Europe meeting.
(This is a good idea... any other regions have a group attending and want
to meet up?)

3) *Friday July 17th, 12:00-13:00 (roon TBD) -- GeoForAll Bird's of a
Feather*

Open session to plan our collective activities after reflecting on the
conference experiences

4) *Saturday July 18th - 8:30-11:30 (room TBD) -- GeoForAll 'Grant Sprint' *

- Some focus on the US SmartCity grant proposal, hopefully at least another
one focused on Europe.
- If anyone is thinking about responding to a call to support our group and
will be there, let me (Charlie) know.

********************************************************************************

Cheers,
Charlie Schweik
