Hi, I'm working on some presentation about OSGeo relationship to INSPIRE directive (some preliminary czech version of presentation, which should be presented at this years INSPIRE conference [1]) And it came to my mind, that OSGeo does not have any body, related to INSPIRE [2] While I agree,

Hi Jachym, This is a great idea, and I agree is missing as a direct goal by the existing OSGeo committees. As Serena mentioned, it should be focused on SDIs in general. Would you be willing to start a wiki draft of this SDI committee? (containing goals, responsibilities, communication methods,

OK, Let's call it OSGeo SDI committee To board: There was proposal to start new committee at OSGeo, which would be focused (as Jeff and Serena pointed out) at SDI in general. Now, INSPIRE is big issue to most OSGeo projects and this committee would take care on it, but it should be focused, as
