Colleagues, It is good that we are having Geo4All meetings at key conferences to build up and expand research and teaching collaborations. Thanks to Maria and Charlie for FOSS4G Como meetings [1]. We will have Geo4All meetings and presentations later this month at ICC 2015 (Rio) and FOSS4G 2015 (Seoul) and other events to build up more ideas and collaborations.
In addition to presentations/meetings at big events, it was thanks to efforts of our great volunteers who run informal events that help spread Geo4All ideas to more colleagues worldwide . For example, i just now came across an event that was organised in Ottawa, Canada [2]. Though i do not know Fabien Ancelin , i would like to thank him and all volunteers who are presenting Geo4All in many events worldwide . These kind of informal events are really good to also expand ideas and i thank all volunteers who are doing this. So if you are at any events/conferences, please do present about Geo4All. The overview slides are available for download from our website [3], which you can make use of as needed. Let me also specifically thank Jason Sadler and all colleagues at the University of Southampton [4] for developing and maintaining our website [5] which has been key for helping us build momentum for Open Principles in Geospatial.
