Hi Guillermo!

Great news about FOSS4G-Ecuador plans, this is wonderful. There are very few limitations and rules for holding a FOSS4G in your country, and that is why it has spread around the whole world so fast! :) You should quickly purchase the domain http://foss4g.ec and then start thinking of your logo: really the only consistent part of FOSS4G (besides the FOSS4G spirit) is the ribbon in the logo, which symbolizes sharing and the flow of ideas and innovation in the community - check here for some past ideas http://foss4g.org but there are many more out there. Another great example is the FOSS4G-SOTM Argentina 2017 logo: http://www.foss4g-ar.org/

In terms of Latin America and FOSS4G, it is great to see so many events popping up for 2017 (Argentina, Brazil, Peru,...). I also try to help these events along, so I will be happy to join your local committee meetings remotely and provide any help along the way - my pleasure!

So yes please share the FOSS4G spirit in Ecuador and plant the seed for our future generations! :) Thank you Guillermo! (and talk soon)

Hello everybody,

I have a question: If I want to organize "FOSS4G in Ecuador" (latin
american country), what I have to do? or who should I speak with?

Regards,
