Paul's 2006 link seems to show a split between foss4g and osgeo, as
well.
+1 for changing to "OSGeo Conference". Call it what it is.

Thanks to you and your team for getting the presentation slides

Reminds me how I used to do GIS on my IBM then go home and watch CBS on my VCR.
Thankfully, those days are over.

We really should have just gone with GeoBonkers' Meeting back then. It speaks
to me on so many levels.
In all seriousness though, I think changing the name now that everyone has
gotten used to it and knows what it means is not a good use of anybody's time.

I do notice that many of the people speaking here were unable to attend
FOSS4G Seoul. What you missed experiencing was how a FOSS4G event
should be:
- OSGeo Board representative quickly introduced the event in the opening
plenary
- OSGeo Board representative closed the event in the final ple
Acronyms don’t usually include prepositions, at least in English. Including 2
and 4 is definitely computerese, something that helps separate words that can’t
have spaces between them as in command-line Unix, e.g. shp2kml. But I don’t see
a need for it here, especially if we want to reach out to

Actually from an international point of view - and as OSGeo grows - I would
think that the 4 in FOSS4G raises more questions than answers since the
number 4 and the word "for" are only homonyms in English as far as I know.

Folks,

If FOSS4G is meant to be an event exclusively organized by OSGeo then
a rebrand to to OSGeo conference makes perfect sense.
If -just as with FOSS4G-NA 2015- the conference is going to be a
co-productin with one more other organisations (such as LocationTech

I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. I will bring some fuel -
diesel in honor of the largest car manufacturing plant near me (Volkswagen)
It would strengthen the brand of OSGEO with a conference named the same.
There seems to be a fairly large disconnect right now with the FOSS4GNA

Hi Barry,
No, please no!! FOSS4G is easy to pronounce in several languages, includes
the word Free and is the name of the conference. OsGeo is ¿"just"? the
organization behind it.
I think it will make even more sense to change OSGeo to FOSGeo.

I'm actually a +1 for this. Changing to "The OSGeo Conference" would
give the description right on the tin and ensure that OSGeo remains
more actively relevant in the minds of members and newbies approaching
the organization.

Okay, this is probably sticking a match under a pile of dry wood but

Can we rename The FOSS4G Conference to The OSGeo Conference?
Cons:
1. FOSS4G is an established brand
2. FOSS4G sidesteps the "Free" vs "Open Source" argument by including both.
Counters to those:
