[Oceania-Board] Open Governance panel @ SotM / FOSS4G Oceania (WAS: Edoardo contact)

[Arnalie Vicario]

Thanks for the response and ideas, Alex!

The deadline to propose is June 30, but I guess since you are one of the
main organizers, you can have this in the program if deemed important by
the board and community. :)

We have proposed this session in SotM Africa with the help of African
members. I am not sure if I will be able to join SotM Oceania so pitching
this to you.

Please feel free to use the proposal and make it your own, and let me know
any help / support needed.

One thing I would appreciate, if this pushes through, is a documentation of
the discussion and next steps.
I plan to share this with the OSMF board, Local Chapters and Communities WG
and SotM 2024 for knowledge sharing and action.


hope to hear from you soon,
