[OpenGeoscience] [Live-demo] EGU Short Courses

[Raffaele Albano]

Hi Micha,
I'm sorry that you cannot participate to EGU this year and we cannot meet
there.
I can not lead the short course because I feel not expert in the
installation and set-up of the OSGEO Live platform.
I hope we can found another volunteer that can lead it. Of course, I can
support him/her for example of some geospatial software application.
Yours,
Raffaele

By now everybody who submitted abstracts should have gotten feedback regarding acceptance so we can determine who'll be able to attend the meeting and might be willing to volunteer.
