 Hello Landon
 
 Have you seen this [1]?
 
 I suggested to use MIT's Timeline [2] for plotting the information.

I have some experience with simile - timeline so I can give some
support if we're willing to implemet such data visualization style.

Agustin, for sure you have some Know How about all this stuff so your
point of view will be appreciated.

I'll wait for others to respond. If we don't already have this
information on the wiki I will create a page.

 While preparing my recent proposal for the OSGeo I realized there
wasn't
 a lot of information on the history of the organization. I realize
part
 of this is because the OSGeo is pretty young as far as organizations
go.
 However, most of the information I could find about the OSGeo was
 related to the founding of the organization. Do we have any type of
 timeline that presents important events in the history of the OSGeo
 since that time? Do we have a historian?
 
  
 
 I'm thinking that such a timeline could contain information about
 projects and sponsors joining the OSGeo, brief summaries about OSGeo
 conferences, and information about the formation of local OSGeo
 projects.

Thanks for asking about this, I was interesting in such information too.

I want to make a timeline of OSGeo and OSGeo projects for a poster that 
we can use in marketing.

Maybe we need a history page on the wiki to track such information in 
one place similar to Tyler's recent summary of OSGeo contributors.
