FOSS4GV 2012

With the unfortunate cancellation of FOSS4G 2012 the community has been left with a conference hole. While there are regional conferences and FOSS4G 2013 there to fill some of the gap we're still left without a proper venue to present this year's product updates, new ideas, and research to the OSGEO community. I propose FOSS4GV, a virtual conference, in addition to the existing regional conferences.
== FOSS4GV 2012 in Cyberspace ==
The idea is simple, a series of presentations and discussions held virtually. While this doesn't provide the socializing, workshops, code sprints, and other aspects of a full conference, it's at least a way to talk about your latest achievements and foster a real-time discussion.
== How so we make it happen? ==
I'm willing to act as the organizer but I'll need help. I've never organized a conference (real or virtual) so I'll need help getting presenters and marketing the event. Please contact me if you are interested in helping. @retrev on twitter or tclarke at ball dot com
== When will this happen? ==
Since FOSS4G normally occurs in the fall, I think we should plan on running the event around the same time as the original FOSS4G. (perhaps a few weeks later to give everyone more time) The event would be much shorter than a normal conference. Either a one day even or perhaps a couple of afternoons.
== Where will this happen? ==
I'm open to suggestions but I'm leaning towards Google+ Hangouts On Air. It's free, automatically saves the talks to Youtube, and works well with a large number of viewers.
== What will happen? ==
This will depend on who we can get to present. I'd like to see a couple of tracks running simultaneously but if there are not enough presenters, we can run a single track. I expect half hour presentation and q&a sessions will probably work out.
Should there be an Ignite! session? Technically, I think this would work just fine but I'm not sure how Ignite! will work without a live audience for feedback.
I'm not sure about a full academic track since we'd need peer review and publication (even virtual) for that to work well. Does anyone know how far Beijing got through the submissions? If there were already some academic papers accepted or in-process we could start with those.

FOSS4G 2006 Webmap BOF

The Web Map Client Bird of a Feather (BOF) session (also referred to as the ka-Map/OpenLayers merger BOF or AJAX Map Client BOF) at FOSS4G 2006 met from 1800 - 2000 on Wed 13 Sep 2006, with the intention of identifying common components that could be abstracted and shared between the various Free and Open web map client libraries.
== Summary ==
Christopher Schmidt posted a summary of the meeting to the OSGeo webmap-discuss mailing list. (To actively join discussion mailto:webmap-discuss-subscribe@mail.osgeo.org and reply to the confirmation mail in order to subscribe.)
== Projects ==
The following projects (at a minimum) were represented at the BOF:
* ka-Map
* OpenLayers
* MapBuilder
* Mapbender
* MapGuide
* CartoWeb
* WorldKit
== Conclusion ==
The meeting participants agreed that the simplest and most effective place to start integrating code between projects would be to select a map tile display engine and abstract it into a library. The map and layer rendering core from OpenLayers was selected for this task, due to its relative simplicity and modularity. By the end of October, the OpenLayers team will spec out an API (tentatively to be called webmap.js) and begin to split out the minimal necessary portions of the OpenLayers code base into this separate library. By that time, each of the participating projects (hopefully ka-Map, OpenLayers, MapBuilder, and Mapbender, at a minimum) will evaluate their needs for a core tile display API and offer recommendations on how best to design the webmap.js library to offer maximum utility to everyone.
Our hope is that, in the future, the new core display library will ultimately be integrated into each project, and be developed collaboratively between the participating projects thereafter.
== Notes ==
The following were the notes collected on the overhead screen during the meeting.

FOSS4G 2008

== Welcome to FOSS4G 2008 in Cape Town ==
Open Source GIS: an option for Developing Nations
The annual Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial (FOSS4G) conference brings together the people who create, use, and support open spatial software. No other event brings together members of the open source development, open data creation, and open standards promotion communities in the spatial realm like FOSS4G.
The 2008 FOSS4G Conference will be held in the fascinating and beautiful city of Cape Town , South Africa from Monday 29th September to Friday 3rd October at the Cape Town International Convention Centre. 
In a change from the norm, the FOSS4G 2008 will incorporate one of the biggest GIS events in South Africa, the biennial GISSA Conference ensuring that a new and (hopefully) enthusiastic audience is reached. 
: The Conference Theme is Open Source GIS: An Option for Developing Nations 
The conference program will explore this theme and more technical themes through a number of features and topics. Find all information at the FOSS4G 2008 Conference Site.
The spectacular Table Mountain defines Cape Town. It has many moods and many faces. Table Mountain is part of the Table Mountain National Park and a Natural World Heritage Site. A revolving cable car carries visitors up the to the summit or one can utilise one of the numerous walking/hiking paths to get there.

Burning LiveDVDs and printing workshop and lab notes are the main purpose so far. 
FOSS4G 2008 participants are welcome to use these services on the recommendation of the LOC. 
The LOC will, by arrangement, organise printing and DVD burning provided materials are supplied in time. 
For workshop and lab presenters, we now DO have a budget to cover moderate printing costs. 
Please contact Burnie above with all enquiries. 
=CD / DVD facilities=
*Chief Directorate: Surveys and Mapping: Heindrich du Plessis
Has a 100-CD burner which is available space-permitting.

*Tim Bowden found these guys:
So far I've lined up http://www.multiskillmedia.co.za who would need the disk by Thursday morning. 
=Print shops=
*These guys are right across the street and are very reliable :
 Minuteman Press Cape Town - +27 21 421 2020 
==Printing arrangements for workshop and lab presenters==
Graeme has just negotiated with my organisation (Meraka) to support some printing costs (= to appx 1000 USD). 
We will create an 'account' at a print shop very close to the CTICC.
The rules:
2 pages to a sheet
double-sided
black and white
Attach a cover page (I will ensure the template is available there)
I know this is not absolutely ideal, but will certainly help some!
Best bet is to make sure your desired printing is made available at the ftp site (if you have not done so already) ftp://foss4g.styx.org - *******/******* - then navigate to your Lab or workshop code, and pop the material in the 'printing' folder
We will endeavour to make sure the printing is done well before your workshop/lab, but as these events are spread across the week, we will prioritise (time-wise), and then have a volunteer through the week to help you get your material printed.

FOSS4G 2009 Abstract Submission Software

OCS isn't suitable for a non-scientific conference like the FOSS4G. It has all the features we don't need but not the features we need. Therefore the website team decided to code a custom solution based on Django. It's develped by User:Vmische.
*Repository: http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/foss4g/2009/django/
*Instance for FOSS4G2009: http://dev.extranet.lisasoft.com/foss4g/
*License: It'll be licensed under MIT.
==Features==
*User accounts (with password reset, changing etc)
*Abstract submissions with tags support for easier voting (incl. editing of already submitted Abstracts)
*Nice admin interface (thank Django, not me)
*Nice ajaxy interface to vote on Abstracts (that also works without JavaScript)
*Pagination
*Abstracts are presented to the user in random order, but the order is specific to the user
==Missing Features==
*You can't sort the Abstracts as you like (e.g. by author).
*You can't search the Abstracts
==Notes==
*The current system is inflexible. It was coded to do the things that were needed, not for all cases that might occur. Though User:Vmische thinks that it should be used as a basis for future FOSS4G conferences. The amount of work that would be needed to add functionality like workshop/tutorial submissions is less than the amount to configure OCS.
===For next year===
*Make it possible to have more than one person per submission.
*Store date when the Abstract was submitted
