[Marketing-wg] OSFA Marketing Call

[Deb Bryant]

Hi Deb and Brock,

Thanks for including me in your kick-off call!

As most of my day job is represented by this list of activities, I  
would be happy to join you.  However this Thursday at 4pm eastern I  
will be doing a presentation on the State of Open Source in the Public  
Sector for the Oregon Association of Government IT Managers winter  
conference.  (I could use a single slide to include OSFA in my  
presentation - could you send me our most current?).

In support of OSFA marketing activities and objectives, I anticipate  
continuing to help with:
> Generating mindshare in the public sector space around open source
>
> Speaking engagements at public sector events
>
> Public sector event participation
>

Next week if, if you'd like to push this out to the event calendar on  
the OSFA web site I'll be moderating a panel "Breaking Down  
Stovepipes: Using Open Source Tools for Emergency Response Personnel"  
at :

TCIP 2010 : Technologies for Critical Incident Preparedness
February 2-4
Sponsored by: Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of Homeland  
Security (DHS) and Department of Defense (DoD)
Philadelphia Downtown Marriott
event web site is: http://www.tcipexpo.com/

Cheers,

Deb Bryant
