I'd like OSGeo to increase its presence in not-developed areas in LatinAmerica (where I am :)), Asia and Africa. Maybe we cannot achieve much in the economical, but there is a potential to grow the number of users. Support for small regional OSGeo conferences as a step to the main one (FOSS4G). Translations (they really never end). But the real challenge will be to attract non technical users to FOSS4G. Probably joining forces with goverments and education would be a necessary first step.
I think OSGeo is pretty succesful, and trying to reach further makes sense, which I hope would bring more users to it.
