Cameron,

Its good to hear of your cross community interest for OSGeo.  My abstract for 
the geospatial track of ApacheConf suggests coordination between open source 
organizations working on geospatial - based on the use of open standards.  One 
aim I have for the session is to identify project coordination actions be 
undertaken after the conference.

If OSGeo sees opportunities for geospatial application of Apache projects it 
would be most appropriate to submit an abstract.  
You can find the call for participation here: 
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-north-america/program/cfp 
<http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-north-america/program/cfp>
Be sure to put submit your abstract with a title of this scheme:  “Geospatial 
Track - [your title]” 

In any case, lets coordinate in advance of the May conference, e.g., it would 
be good to include a slide in my presentation summarizing the OSGeo projects.

Regards,
George
