Same here (I had also sent my consent to
academictrack at foss4g2016.org earlier).

Selected papers from the FOSS4G-Seoul academic track
will be publish in the special issue of the new
Spatial Information Research journal [1]. SPIR
could also be considered as one of the journals
for publishing selected papers. I could discuss
with Prof. Jung-Sup Um, Editor-in-Chief, SPIR about
this if the SC agrees.

Best

Venka
