I think the OSGeo-Live project that you are leading can be safely (re)-named as
FOSS4G-Live as it has a wonderful array of software projects that are not
under the OSGeo umbrella as yet.

+1 for "OSGeo conference".

Adding a perspective from someone who marketed FOSS4G 2009.
Creating a marketing message is all about minimising words used, because "less words get read more".

When explaining FOSS4G to people outside our community you need to use:

"international conference for Free and Open Source Software for GeoSpatial (FOSS4G), presented by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo)."

vs

"international Open Source Geospatial (OSGeo) conference"

This is a good question to put to the charter members for a vote at some point.

Yes, you and I and everyone *on this mailing list* knows
the difference and the relationship between OSGeo and FOSS4G. But
there are people out there in geospatial who don't know either.
Emphatic +1
