Hi Dirk,

as we just discussed via Skype. I am happy to contribute with an 
invitation to FOSs4g 2016 in Bonn. I also could talk a little about our 
ideas, our focus and stuff like this. As i'll be there anyhow, you mgith 
count me in for other activities as well, in case just drop me a note 
early enough, so that I have time to prepare.

Dear all,

As OSGeo celebrates his 10th anniversary, and outreach to the 
external
world is one of our strategic goals for the next 10 years, OSGeo 
decided

to become supporting organisation for the Geospatial World Forum in
Rotterdam, 2016 May 23-26. We will host an "OSGeo" track on May 24,
2016. As this is an opportunity where the whole GIS industry and the
public sector is coming together from all over the globe to exchange
information, it is a great opportunity for OSGeo to outreach to the
greater public.

Please have a look at the draft agenda and add your name where you 
may

help. I am looking for advocates that want to promote their project,
their community, why they are involved, and how people interested 
could

benefit or help out. It is a good moment to celebrate and to show the
advantages of OSGeo software.

[1] is the wiki page with a schedule for an agenda. The idea is to
present OSGeo as an organisation from volunteers to anybody 
interested
in open software, where OSGeo will present our new vision and 
mission,
Geo4All, the live-Demo and the Champion OSGeo projects. The template 
is
copied into the GWF program [2], where GWF is asking to provide 
pictures

of people presenting to send a photo.

There are 2 workshops: INSPIRE for OSGeo / OSGeo for INSPIRE where we
will discuss how both communities can support each other, and there 
is a

workshop about the next steps for the European Local Chapter.

P.S.
I also included the contact persons of the nearby local chapters
(Netherlands, Germany and Belgium) to distribute the message in their
respective local chapters.
