[Marketing] Ideas for a conference brochure pack

[Jo Cook]

Hi Cameron,

This was certainly brought up at the Board meeting in Seattle last month. I
will see if I can get that discussion going again at least so we move
forward with some of the ideas we kicked around then (but ran out of time
to fully discuss).

I would like to help get the marketing committee moving again- but to a
certain extent I'm relying on the goodwill of my boss with all the OSGeo
stuff I'm already doing- I will help where I can though!

Jo
