[OSGeo-UK] FOSS4G:UK Local 2022

[Nick Bearman]

Hi all,

We had a great FOSS4G:UK Local 2022 conference on Thurs 17th Nov, 
PostGIS day. Many thanks to everyone who attended, presented and helped 
organize the conference. We had 246 attendees in person and ~50 online, 
meaning we reached a total of about 300 people on the day. This is many 
more than we’ve previously been able to reach at an in person event. We 
raised about £3500 for OSGeo:UK which will go towards our funding of 
Open Source Geospatial software 
<https://uk.osgeo.org/pastdonations.html>. Videos for most of the 
sessions are now available on our YouTube channel 
<https://www.youtube.com/@FOSS4GUK/streams> with links on each venue 
page. The full agenda for all venues, with links to each session is here 
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ChtOtqO0PfZ2ckiZqqJxyV3VhP3Xm-WnkJ6NwZ2UVTM>. 
We are still waiting for videos from Cardiff and Glasgow to be updated 
and we will post those shortly.

You are also welcome to continue chatting with participants through the 
OSGeo:UK Matrix Room: #OSGeoUK:matrix.org 
<https://matrix.to/#/#OSGeoUK:matrix.org>. Check out this page 
<https://nickbearman.github.io/installing-software/element-matrix-public>for 
details on how to sign up. All participants are expected to follow the 
Code of Conduct <https://uk.osgeo.org/foss4guk2022local/code-of-conduct>.

We have done a short write up 
<https://uk.osgeo.org/foss4guk2022local/lessons-learned.html>, 
summarizing some of the feedback and highlighting a few of the lessons 
learned for next time. We’re aiming to run a conference in 2023, and 
will be asking for volunteers early next year - so please keep an eye 
out for this!

Any comments, questions or glaring typos - please update the website, or 
let me know!

Best wishes,
Nick.
