[OpenLayers-Dev] Intergeo 2007

[Erik Uzureau]

Emanuel,

Sorry that we have been slow to respond to your email, but things have
been in shuffle over here. It is not because your offer is
uninteresting.

Au contraire, the idea of you representing the OpenLayers project at
Intergeo 2007 sounds like a great idea. The rest of the OL folks will
be in Canada presenting the project at the FOSS4G conference in
Victoria. Great to have project representatives on both sides :-)

What are your ideas for representing OL at this Intergeo 2007? You
mention a booth, or maybe a talk or workshop? We don't have much in
the way of resources to help you out, but if we tried, we could
probably work together to get some promotional style videos together,
or something of that nature. Would that help?

Let us know a little more what you are planning on doing... and as
always, thanks for your interest and dedication to the OL community!

Erik
