But please don't interpret my silence as non-interest. Moving house, job pressures, and busy kids have been especially distracting recently.

<DIV>I'm planning to get a bunch of people together at Carleton soon to discuss how to run GIS Day this coming year, and will be sure to reiterate your interest. I'd probably want to then come back to those of you interested from OSGEO to get your input / bounce ideas around shortly after that.</DIV>

<DIV>Hello Richard,<BR><BR></DIV>Thanks for contacting Scott.

<BLOCKQUOTE style="BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 1ex" class=ecxgmail_quote>Hi Folks,<BR><BR>While I was at Carleton University today, stopped in & spoke with Scott<BR>Mitchell about our fall events. Summary below, please note that we would<BR>need to formally follow up on some of these items. Putting them forward for<BR>discussion etc.<BR><BR>- We can certainly use the computer lab facilities (larger one holds approx<BR>35 with additional space for laptop users) & more than likely one of the<BR>conference rooms. We will need to go through Scott to request these.<BR>- No glaring issues why we couldn't do the balloon mapping but we would need<BR>to follow with university. One key discussion was disclaimer forms for those<BR>(students/others) participating in outdoor activities (balloon<BR>mapping/openstreetmap). Scott has offered to dig up the universities field<BR>trip forms if we ask.<BR>- GIS Day this year at Carleton is going to be given more attention than<BR>previous years by active staff wanting to promote it. GIS day falls on<BR>Wednesday Nov 20th; during Geographic Awareness Week. We should consider the<BR>possibility of having our event in the evening. We would have a lot of<BR>interested individuals on campus already. If someone was available to<BR>represent OSGeo during the day (I may depending on work schedule), we could<BR>set up a booth.<BR><BR>- In terms of software freedom day, we would have the same options available<BR>to us to request.<BR><BR>I'd like to thank Scott for offering the use of the facilities.<BR><BR>The sooner we can finalize the location the easier it will be to get things<BR>rolling. IMHO, we should certainly be making use of Carleton's facilities. I<BR>vote for an evening workshop on GIS Day.<BR><BR>Very much looking forward to our fall events!<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR><BR>Richard<BR><BR><BR><BR>--<BR>View this message in context: <A href="http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Information-Using-Carleton-s-Facilites-for-Fall-Events-tp5051945.html" target=_blank>http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Information-Using-Carleton-s-Facilites-for-Fall-Events-tp5051945.html</A><BR>Sent from the OSGeo Ottawa Local Chapter mailing list archive at <A href="http://nabble.com/" target=_blank>Nabble.com</A>.<BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Ottawa_users mailing list<BR><A target=_blank>Ottawa_users@lists.osgeo.org</A><BR><A href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/ottawa_users" target=_blank>http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/ottawa_users</A><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>_______________________________________________<BR>Ottawa_users mailing list<BR><A href="mailto:Ottawa_users@lists.osgeo.org">Ottawa_users@lists.osgeo.org</A><BR>http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/ottawa_users<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR></DIV><BR>_______________________________________________ Ottawa_users mailing list Ottawa_users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/ottawa_users</DIV> </div></body>
