[Ottawa_users] Ottawa_users Digest, Vol 80, Issue 20 - OSGEO Award of Excellence

[Fabien Ancelin]

Hello folks,

Since I got no reply for meeting on December 12th, I am getting back to you
all about that. At this point in time, I would just keep it as a regular
meeting.

I would like to talk about :

   - The GIS Day and what happened here.
   - How do members envision OSGeo, and what should be our guidelines for
   2014
   - Just enjoy being with each other and GIS-Talk

Please let me know ASAP if your in or if you are not.

Cheers

@Javed, what is the situation with the OSGeo awards?

> Hello folks,

> First, a great thank you to all of you that showed up at the GIS-Day at
> Carleton University. It was good to have OSGeo members there. It was a
> great opportunity to show what can be done with Open Source. Thanks to
> Scott for the organization : it was really well organized, with what seems
> to be a lot of interesting people. I wished I had the time to see many
> presentations yesterday.
>
> Secondly, thanks to Richard that came up with the Humanitarian Open Street
> Map last Thursday. That was a really good event. We got 8 people showing
> up, and some of them were first time OSM Mapper. It was a great feeling to
> contribute to helping people and all of that with a bunch of cool people.
> People did a really good job at helping each other from a technical
> standpoint, which allowed everyone to get up to speed quickly.
>
> Finally, I would like to suggest a change for the next OSGeo meeting. Since
> it is hard to do a meeting at the end of December, Javed and I were
> thinking about having one meeting in mid-December and skipping the one from
> November. The meeting would be on Thursday December 12th. Javed was
> thinking about a Christmas dinner, so it is up to us to see if we want to
> do something a bit more special. Any ideas?
>
>
> On the agenda, we could have :
>
>   - A recap on GIS-Day and see have ideas about what is next? I must admit
>   I am up to slacking off the next month or two :)
>   - Anything else you guys want.
>
>
> Let me know what you folks think about that.
