Hi,

I am ready to have a stand and a conference also.

I will ask the organisers if it is possible.

I think I can share my own experience in teaching in os I had on January at work. This will also help my director to let me have a day off :-)

I think a presentation to introduce Openstreetmap would be very appropriate there. I guess my French is sufficient to present it, but I think it would be better if a native speaker would do it. I'm pretty sure parts of the presentation presented in Mons can be (re)used:

Didier was going to provide the source document as odt too.

Are you going to ask the organisers if we can give a presentation and a present a stand? I'm prepared to take that Thursday off from work to man the stand.

    Hi,

    I am also open to discuss on the opportunity to have a stand  (and
    a conference ? The level is not the same than FOSDEM...) at the
    Walloon Event "rewics" in Charleroi, end of April.

    No worries Peter. I'm planning to show it in Lier. There is so
    much going on at FOSDEM, one has to find a way to divide and
    conquer :-)

    Ben, I hope the Hack weekend was productive!

    The first week of July there will be another event around free
    software and free content. The RMLL comes to Brussels this time!
    Usually it's somewhere in France and last year it was in
    Switzerland. Too far away for me. But now that it's nearby we
    should make sure we represent OSM there.

    They would like we do a mapping party on the day for 'le grand
    public'.
    I think we can do 1 or 2 presentations (introductory and more
    advanced) and I think it's important we'll have a stand there as
    well. Maybe with 3 to 5 computers, so people can get some
    'hands-on' experience.

    And we need 'goodies', of course: T-shirts, but also anoraks/rain
    coats, caps, high-viz vests. Cups, pens (muts/bonnet maybe for
    the die hard mappers...) ?
    Openstreetmap.fr is working on that, but I'm not entirely sure if
    they will be with .fr or with .org then.

    The first week of August there is the festival of Esperanza in
    Floreffe, where OSM also has a presence, thanks to Pierre Willot.

        Hi,

        I was, as usual, also planning to visit FOSDEM but decided to
        go to the OSM London Hack Weekend
        (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/London_Hack_Weekend_Feb_2013)
        but I will be able to meet you all in Lier again. Hopefully a
        lot of you will join because I still haven't met a lot of the
        mappers on this list!

        My compliments to the organizers of the stand, maybe next
        year I will be able to join!

        Regards,

        Ben

            Hi,

            I payed a little visit a couple of times to the stand.
            First estimates are there where between 5 and 7000
            visitors there on saturday.
            So the project should have had 'some' exposure :).
            It was nice to have you guys at Fosdem.

            Also want to say sorry to Jo.
            He wanted to show me some stuff he had done, but
            unfortunatly I didn't have the time.
            Hopefully I can find some time to join in Lier.

            Regards,
            Peter 'toi' Leemans

                For your information some mappers, belgian and
                french, were presents at FOSDEM to present OSM in a
                stand.

                We had good contacts with people at FOSDEM. This was
                a nice week-end ! A lot of contacts and meetings.

                We were thinking that some question were very
                accurate. The Jo's presence was helpful for those
                questions. We should keep that in mind for next year.

                Regards,
                Julien Fastré
