[OTT_OSGEO] Fwd: GIS Day Speaker

[Jeff McKenna]

I really like your idea of an OSGeo presence at GIS Day.  I have worked 
DMSG booths for GIS Day at Ottawa U in the past, so I would volunteer to 
contact Prof Mike Sawada about an OSGeo booth at OttawaU for this year's 
event.

Let me know if I should contact him about this.
