    Question: Are the signers of the open letter thought to be good
    representatives of the MapServer community? If so, I’d like to
    suggest that we reconstitute that meeting, and open it up to more
    people. I propose that we meet on February 3.
The names we had before are below. I’d like to see some folks from
    Refractions, Intergraph, and other like-minded people there.

    I would like to enable smaller contributions, despite the fact that
the majority will probably come from larger coorperate sponsership. For instance I have a very small side business and would be very
    interested in contributing an anual donation (roughly equivilant to
the maintainance fee of a certain Internet Mapping Software). Developing a way to recognize the contributions (financial or
    technical) of smaller doners can really help keep interest up (just
    ask PBS)


        I really think we need to empower some people to get in a room
        and come up with a coherent plan that they find reasonable, and
        then bring that back to the community for comment.

Excellent idea, if only we all lived in the same town... :-)
