[TZGISUG] Official: FOSS4G2018 will be in Dar

[Ragnvald Larsen]

Dear friends and colleagues,
    as a member of the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) I am happy to tell
you that the FOSS4G conference in 2018 will be in DAR. Read more about the
bid process here:

The decision was taken earlier this week:

   -
   https://www.loomio.org/d/3XJy9I6D/approve-dar-es-salaam-to-host-foss4g-2018

Although this is one year and nine months away there is a lot to be done
before the conference. Some of this will involve getting ideas from the
Tanzania GIS community.

The co-chairs for the conference will be Msilikale Msilenga and Mark
Illiffe. The LOC will provide more information early next year.

Congratulations all!

Ragnvald
