[Ottawa_users] FOSS4G 2014 Bid

[Andrew Ross]

Thanks again everyone for the support.

On behalf of the Washington D.C. local organizing committee, we were hoping
someone might be willing to write a letter of support on behalf of the
OSGeo Ottawa chapter. We have a template and examples to help. Thanks in
advance for considering.

For those interested in helping, there's quite a few opportunities even at
this early stage. Ping me off-list and we can help you find something you
find interesting and rewarding while supporting the event. Thanks again!

Andrew
