[Basques, Bob (CI-StPaul)]

All,

Moving conversation thread to the OSGeo List.

I’m working on getting the GITA quote . . . will post here.

Bob, if ok with you, would you mind CCing this thread to live-demo <live-demo at lists.osgeo.org><mailto:live-demo at lists.osgeo.org>.

I like Jody's idea of a news item. I suggest draft it up a joint OSGeo-Live/GITA press release at: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeoLive#Press_Releases

You could add a quote from GITA. Get a quote from one of the <big title> people at OSGeo Live to add legitimacy.

"Angelos Tzotsos, chair of OSGeo Live and vice president of the OSGeo Foundation said ..." (assuming ok with Angelos)

The press release can include an endorsement of the speaker's involvement with OSGeo-Live as an authoritative contributor.

Cheers, Cameron

Quickest way is to get a thumbs up for OSGeo Live team, and ask them to make a blog post (https://www.osgeo.org/foundation-news/). Which is a good idea in any case.

You could also add the date to the OSGeo events: http://osgeo.org/events/

Q: Does GITA have a partner relationship with OSGeo?

You two,

I’m doing the OSGeo Live, Lighting Presentation here next month:

https://gitasw.org/lightning-overview-of-the-best-geospatial-open-source/

And the organizers want to play up the OSGeo angle a bit more, what’s the quickest way to get official recognition / permission to say that OSGeo is advocating for the presentation?  The organizers want to send out a promotional blast in a few days.  If it makes any difference, we’re planning to also hand out preconfigured USBs at the event to each attendee.

Thanks

bobb
