[postgis-users] FOSS4G Abstracts announced + Early Bird registration looming

[Paul Ramsey]

Hey everyone, the FOSS4G 2009 program has been selected, and the early
bird registration deadline is coming up fast! I hope to see you all
there (I'm going!)  There will be lots of PostGIS content, and a great
opportunity to learn and make connections. The official announcement
follows. Paul.



== Abstracts Announced ==

A comprehensive list of presentations has been announced for the
international Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial conference,
in Sydney, Australia, 20-23 October 2009.

For the full list of quality abstracts, view:

Community participation in the abstract selection was impressive, with
over 150 community members selecting 85 general track abstracts from
the 183 submitted and a further 12 academic abstracts selected by 52
academic peers.

== Early Bird Registration ==

After getting inspired from the breadth of abstracts, be sure to
register for the FOSS4G conference. Early Bird registration closes in
just over two weeks, on 7 August, 2009.
