Hey list,

I'm not sure if there is any interest in this or not, but I figured I would forward it along. I'm most likely going to be helping out with this, and any additional help would be great!

Cheers!
Teresa

Hi everyone,

I decided that it's time for a SOTM for Canada, considering the great progress of everyone over the past year.
Whats neat about this one, is that we can set it up so that people can attend remotely. (considering it's so far for people to get to, it's not possible for the whole talk-ca list to get together. (the remote attendence would be higher than the actual attendence)

We have AWESOME 'power users' who are located across Canada (and all over the world, actually), and would be great to get everyone together for a SOTM.

Since I'm planning on being in Ottawa for that time (since the Trans Canada Trail AGM is around that day). I'm not sure for how long, but i think that might work. So it could still be the Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday thing.

If someone else is good at planning, feel free to jump in. (As i don't really need to host it).  I invited a few of you already on Google Calendar.  So if someone wants to make a wiki page for it, and incorporate other things.  Since i haven't been to SOTM before (i don't know what it's like). 
... so anyway, i think we can line-up a bunch of speakers for it (remotely too). 

Does anyone know if there is a conference room at the local library (like there is here in Victoria)?

Cheers,

Perhaps an Ottawa OSGeo Chapter event could be aligned with this?  
Might be a good way for the OSGeo folks and any local openstreet  
mappers to meet?
