Meeting Minutes
OpenMRS Meetings for 2011
Reviewed notes/ideas from group discussion amongst Darius, Chris S., Ben, and Dawn in regard to OpenMRS meetings for 2011
Two meeting types: 1)Focus on setting the Road Map and 2) Focus on introducing individuals to OpenMRS community and system
Location: several factors go into this (cost, major airports in the city/area, hotel costs, someone who can organize locally, etc.)
One idea is to pair a meeting with another conference (ie. many individuals came to the 2010 Implementers Meeting in Cape Town and were able to join Medinfo due to time and geographical closeness)
There's great support and development of the OpenMRS community in Africa and Asia as well. We will need to look for pairings and local support in both
Possible 2011 conference pairings include: 1) HELINA 2011, 2) Innovations in Healthcare Management and Informatics 2011, 3) International Conference on ICT in Africa 2011, 4) IST-Africa 2011
Dawn will contact individuals in the OpenMRS community for local support in these areas
