[Live-demo] Is it possible to meet in Bonn? - OSGeo-Live Translations

[Astrid Emde]

Hello Kari

it would be great to meet you at FOSS4G! The OSGeo-Live Team will be at 
the FOSS4G OSGeo Code Sprint. You clould join. Just add your name to the 
wiki - you either can join before or after the conference. I will be 
there all five days of the code sprint.

See you Astrid
