Just a quick note to inform you that FOSS4G, which was supposed to run in Beijing, China later this year, has been cancelled.
The Local Organising Committee posted the following note to its website last week:
Dear Participants of FOSS4G Beijing 2012,
With great regret, the FOSS4G Beijing Local Organizing Committee (LOC) has made the difficult decision of cancelling the event due to a lack of financial resources and the unexpected withdrawal of the Professional Conference Organizer. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
For those interested in FOSS4G events, the LOC suggests consider:
* FOSS4G 2013, to be held in Nottingham, United Kingdom, 2013
* The Asian Geospatial Forum, September 2012, Hanoi, Vietnam, which will have an OSGeo session. http://www.asiageospatialforum.org/
Thank you for your patience and support!
Best regards,
FOSS4G Beijing 2012 LOC
