[Marketing] Swiss Geoscience Meeting 2008 - OSGeo support request

[Massimiliano Cannata]

Dear all,
I'm writing you because the next October the University where I work 
(http://www.ist.supsi.ch) will held the annual Swiss Geo-science Meeting 
(last year web site: http://geoscience-meeting.scnatweb.ch/sgm2007/).

In the past it used to be mostly a geological congress, but now it is 
opening to other geo-sciences.
The Theme for the 2008 SGM is applied science, and I think that geomatic 
can play an important role!
For this propose, I set up a session on Geospatial.
I also aim to find with this event a certain number of people interested 
in forming an Swiss OSGeo local chapter.
For this reason, I'm going to present OSGeo and some applications 
executed with their projects.

I think it would be nice to have OSGeo support for this session, and 
with support I just intend a "spiritual" support, not monetary!
I'd like to have your permit to use OSGeo logo as one of the supporting 
foundation (others are Swiss geological Survey and Swiss Geodetic 
Commission) and maybe set-up a boot with promotional material (this last 
if possible).

My name is Massimilano Cannata, I worked extensively with the Italian 
OSGeo Local Chapter (leason officier), and Italian community. I would 
personally be responsible for the management of the OSGeo market image.

If you have any question, or suggestion to make it better, please don't 
hesitate to write me.

Thanks,
Massimiliano
