Are you sure ordering by rank is a good idea (whatever the rank is)?

Hi,
Are you sure that is a complete list of what the approved licenses are?
That would be pretty disappointing if they limit by "name" of the license
instead of by "rights".

Hi,
Another reason *not* to change the name: if it is called the OSGeo
conference, non-OSGeo software or companies will feel rejected and don't
want to come. I find it very refresh to be able to discuss non-OSGeo but
FOSS4G things in this kind of conferences.
Regards,
María.

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.

When people ask me how should they start on the GIS world, I always give
them two advices:
* Check OsGeo.
* Read the Libro Libre de SIG Libre[1] (only Spanish, translations
accepted)
If OsGeo disappeared, someone should invent it.
Which doesn't mean it is the only way to achieve the same goals
