This ' LocationTech and OSGeo collaboration ', appears to be some thing that the OSGeo Charter should involve and motivate opinion etc. Those at the helm may pl post a summary of the, 'storey so far'. On Thursday, September 18, 2014 2:23 AM, Jachym Cepicky jachym.cepi...@gmail.com wrote:

HI all, As there is a request for Charter Members to chime in, here my 2 cents: The issue on hand is highlighting excellently the need for effective and efficient decision procedures based on mandates. OSGeo has but embarked on establishing these, currently discussions are driven more by gut

My guess is, just as I do, most Charter Members find this entire thread very alien. For us who don't go to FOSS4G, OSGeo means something completely different (here is where I disagree with an earlier email—I think it was Jo Cook—that folks know OSGeo products but not OSGeo). To suddenly hear of

I agree it is a bit strange P Kishor: I helped organise a very small foss4g-au unconference in 2012 with Nathan. A couple weeks ago Rob Emanuele asked if I could help out with foss4g-na - not sure what I will be doing yet. Rob is a passionate scala developer, and it is great to see that
