[OSGeo-UK] OSGeo UK annual gathering

[Ian Edwards]

Hi Barry

It's a shame that you won't be able to make it to OSGIS - but good to hear
that a more spatial project should be in the pipeline...

Plans will be made at OSGIS on how to take things forward in 2015.  If
OSGIS goes on the road next year then it's quite possible that it may be
renamed FOSS4G UK.
