[Freegis-list] FreeGIS speaker for World Urban Planning Forum, Barcelona, 16th Sept?

[Jan-Oliver Wagner]

Hi FreeGIS people,

we are looking for a FreeGIS representative for a workshop at UN Habitat
Urban World Forum in Barcelona, 16th September 2004.

If you feel competent in Free Software and GIS and also in the aspect of
commercial Free Software and if you are interested in giving a short
introduction at the workshop, please contact me off-list, ie. via
private email.

Some Details:
It's a workshop from 9:30 to 13:00 organized by the MILES
consortium (Managing Information for Local Environment in Sri Lanka).
The titel is "Managing information for the local environment".
A 5-10 minutes presentation as a warm-up is to be given about
Free GIS Software. Then an open discussion will follow.
I think the bias should be on Free Software to have the later on
discussion focus this matter instead of discussing endless on
some technical GIS details.

More details:

http://www.unhabitat.org/wuf/2004/networking.asp#Thur
and there especially:

A share of the travel costs can be funded, but it is likely
that you have some extra costs.

Best

        Jan
