Hi Folks
At this point I guess I'll have to cancel the short course
sessions.
Sorry, maybe next time...
Regards,
Micha

Hello all
Unfortunately I will not be able to attend the EGU2016
conference. Funding was cut, so I have to cancel my trip.
I hope someone will come forward and take the lead for the
OSGeo Live short course (Raffaele?) which is still scheduled.
I can still assist remotely if necessary. For example, I can
prepare USB sticks with the latest version 9.5 as a ready to
use VM, and ship them in advance to whomever volunteers to
hand them out at the short course.
Best regards,
Micha

Hi Peter
Thanks for your follow-up. Here [1] are the details I
entered for the short course.
So far we have a few volunteers [2] who are willing to take
on parts of the presentation. I have contacted Mike Smith
about financing a batch of USB drives to hand out to SC
participants. He seems willing to reimburse if I purchase
and prepare the disks. I have no idea how many disks to buy.
Any input from people who participated in earlier EGU events
is welcome.
So we're good to go, so far. Just looking for more people to
join and do part of the demo/tutorial. I'll initiate direct
contact with those who expressed an interest, and try to
finalize the list of presenters.
Best regards,
Micha

Hi Micha, all,
I just wanted to ask about the current status of the planning for the Short Courses.
As far as I understand the dates remain to be settled (or Copernicus will do this) and volunteers to present OSGeo projects in the course(s) need to be found. By now everybody who submitted abstracts should have gotten feedback regarding acceptance so we can determine who'll be able to attend the meeting and might be willing to volunteer.
My knowledge about Short Courses is limited. Do we have anybody in the group who participated or presented in EGU Short Courses in the past ? This would be very usefuly information about how to make the most of the Short Courses, the Townhall and the sessions.
FWIW, the EGU GA continues to grow. In the 2016 the number of abstracts rose by 2000 to about 17.000 abstracts for all Divisions. Chances are good we will meet many FOSS-interested scientists in Vienna :-)
Best,
Peter
