A few weeks ago there was a flurry of discussion about standards-related stuff, up to and including things like how OSGeo members might work with OGC. Since this is an area I know a bit about, and since I've talked to some OGC folks about it recently, I'd like to see if I can help us to try and see if we can reach some consensus as to what OSGeo's goals, interests, and opportunites are.
A mailing list is now up: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If this sounds like a subject you're interested in, please subscribe and say hi. Ideally, as a first step I'd like to see us get a handle the OGC question. In what ways do you feel you are restricted from working with OGC today? In what ways do you think OGC could benefit from OSGeo members and projects? Feel free to jump in and post your ideas / thoughts / issues, and I'll try to get a wiki page going to eventually stake out a summary of the collective hivemind. If there's enough interest, we might get a BOF-like thing in Victoria to have some live discussion too. -mpg _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
