This is a great idea, thanks Cameron. I think the organizing committee should strategize on how we should update this wiki so lessons learned, etc can be used by others moving forward.

I'm including the foss4gna2016-discuss list on this, it's the public list we set up to talk about things specific to FOSS4GNA 2016 (like this idea!)

Cheers,

Rob

Hi Rob

If you haven't already found it, you might want to draw upon prior foss4g experience in https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Handbook

I'd also encourage you to add to this Handbook as you come up with new ideas.
In particular, I really like your community voting ranking system. It would be good to capture how you are doing it such that others can follow your lead.

Warm regards, Cameron

Dear Everyone,

On behalf of the Organizing Team, we would like to invite you to submit talk & workshop proposals for FOSS4G North America 2016. The conference will run May 2-5, 2016 at the Raleigh Convention Center in Raleigh, North Carolina, U.S.A..

Like last year, we will be offering a free full access pass to speakers who have their talk or workshop accepted. The 2016 conference will be noticeably bigger than 2015. The list of topics include a number of mature areas as well as emerging ones. Please see the call for proposals for details and to submit a proposal.

Also, public community voting on submissions has been enabled. Cast your vote for the presentations and workshops you would like to see!

We wish you a safe and happy holiday season!
