Hi Everyone,
Just touching base on this. If possible, we could use the letter of support no later than tomorrow to count for the Washington D.C. proposal.
I can provide a template if someone wants to email me off-list.
Thanks again!
Andrew

Hi Everyone,

I can provide a template that can be used for the letter of support. It might be more official coming from a co-chair, but that's up to you to decide.

Sadly I have a conflict and can't make it tonight.

Where: Washington D.C. - most likely in the [http://www.omnihotels.com/FindAHotel/WashingtonDCShoreham.aspx] Omni Shoreham HotelWhen: September 22nd to 25th with a code sprint on the 26th & 27thIt is going to be an awesome event and a lot of fun.

Sounds good. 
 If you need one of the co-chair to sign or write and Christy can not do it, I will be happy to deal.with that. It will simply have to wait July the 2nd. If the people meeting at the F&F before decide to do otherwise, just let me know. 
 Actually, please keep me posted both ways. 
 Cheers

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!

Thank you very much for the support. The letter of intent was officially submitted. If all goes well, the team will be invited to formally bid on FOSS4G 2014. I'm pretty jazzed about it... we've got a great team.

More in the coming weeks,Andrew

Hi Everyone,

I am part of a team assembling a bid for FOSS4G 2014.                 The bid plans to host it in Washington D.C. in September                 2014. Dave McIlhagga, myself are both part of the                 conference committee along with an impressive and very                 experienced team.

We were hoping the OSGeo Ottawa chapter could formally               support to the bid?

 The practicalities of supporting the bid might manifest in               a variety of ways such as helping spread the word in               Ottawa & general about the various milestones like the               web site going on-line, call for papers, call for               workshops, early bird registration, etc.As far as protocol to decide, perhaps if someone other than Dave         and I would please +1, we'll consider the first +1 the motion,         the next as the second, and subsequent tallied in the vote. If         anyone feels strongly against it, please -1 and suggest why.

 For what it is worth, the OSGeo Quebec chapter's steering               committee voted unanimously to support the bid.

Thank you in advance for considering!

 Andrew
