I think if we're going to do it, we should do it right. Brussels is a great location for such a conference. The ULB campus has proven to be a great venue, look at FOSDEM, RMLL, Odoo (back when they were still OpenERP).
indeed.

At the beginning of May, I have an appointment with the president of ULB and its administrator.

I proposed that ULB hosts RMLL. I am ready to propose that ULB hosts STOM. Yes, definitively, SOTM-Belgium would be a good start, but with Fosdem and RMLL experiences, and enough people, I think we can definitively aim at SOTM. Now, we just need to build the file and enter a good proposal.

I'll meet soon ministers and try to get money for other projects related to free software, open access, open data. OSM is only the next step.

What about organising in the beginning of 2016 SOTM-Belgium to get some traction, and that during only a week-end (like Fosdem). We could advertise during Fosdem and also before at different local events.

Then we could go larger for a full blown SOTM at the beginning of September 2016.

What do you think of such a proposal ?

I am ready also to propose it to the team that is behind the organisation of the associalibre.be activity of free software for associations on April 24 (where you are all welcome). And where Julien will come and hopefully help with the planned OSM activity.

Best regards,

Nicolas
