[Live-demo] Translating OSGeo-Live's marketing material - Who is interested?

[Jody Garnett]

So far we have German and Japanese volunteers at the conference for Friday.
One thing that would really help is to set up the project directory structure for de and jp prior to the code sprint so we can just get going.

I will stop in at the code sprint but expect I will mostly be hanging with the Java crowd.

Thanks to everyone who attended the presentation.
