[OSM-talk] Keep up with the SOTM 2010 progress

[Henk Hoff]

Hello Kate,

We've discussed the issue of the dates you've mentioned, but we have decided
to stick with the date mentioned.

Reasons:
- It's the same weekend as this year (and last year)
- The week before the weekend, the Girona University already had a series of
summer-OS GIS-workshops planned. To give attendees the possibility to also
go to these workshops, was a strong reason to stick with the dates.

I can understand you would have to choose for Wikimania. Maybe next year we
should compare dates with both conferences before we both decide on dates.

Cheers,
Henk Hoff
