Excellent, I've started a planning wiki page:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GITA_2011
and I've told them that we will take the booth.  

I will next put together a call for presentations within our track.  

Any thoughts on how to maximise this benefit for FOSS4G are always welcome - 
e.g. banner, material, presentations, etc.  We can collect them in the wiki.  

Will keep you posted,
Tyler
