[OTT_OSGEO] Fwd: GIS Day Speaker

[Scott W Mitchell]

Sounds great, I'd be happy if you could bring it up with Mike.

I don't remember DMSG at Carleton last year, was someone there?   
Heather McAdam did a great job at getting external involvement, GIS  
day has really expanded here in the last few years.  Now I just need  
to get some more faculty involved, so I can split my time between the  
department's and OSGEO's presence :)

Cheers,
Scott
