<div class="gmail_quote">The Australian and New Zealand Metadata communities were engaged to try <br>and <br>get some momentum back into the seemingly stalled ANZLIC Metadata Catalog <br>work based on GeoNetwork.<br><br>
There is a lot of good will towards making GeoNetwork work as the tool of <br>choice. Jeroen Ticheler arranged for ANZLIC development (BlueNet) to be <br>developed within a Sandpit environment within the GeoNetwork community. <br>
<br>The ensuing email thread showed how much open source spatial work<br>is happening in the region and good will towards working together. </div>

<div>- Inquiry into Improving Access to Victorian Public Sector Information and Data<br><br>OSGeo-AustNZ prepared a submission for the Victorian Government's <br>Parliamentary <br>Inquiry into Improving Access to Victorian Public Sector Information<br>
and Data.<br><br>This submission was prepared at short notice and to a tight time frame and <br>covers<br>a lot of current issues relating to open access to spatial data. <br><br>The submission is available on the OSGeo-AustNZ wiki. (or soon will be <br>

> time to do it all again. I started up a wiki page listing<br>> the primary contacts for each project, committee, chapter and sponsor:<br>> <a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Annual_Report_2008" target="_blank">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Annual_Report_2008</a><br>
><br>> If you are involved with one and see that the wrong person is<br>> named, or someone is missed, could you please let me know. I<br>> will send out more information to each of the main contacts<br>> shortly. Also, if you are interested in helping to<br>
> prepare/collect or format the entries for the compilation,<br>> let me know. You will get credit as a section Editor for<br>> that issue of the Journal :) I learned a lot compiling last<br>> years and it should go much smoother this time around.<br>
><br>> The annual report is the main reporting venue for OSGeo<br>> projects, committees and local chapters. It's the<br>> opportunity for newcomers, potential sponsors and users in<br>> general to see, in one location, where things have been<br>
> moving. It is also valuable as a record of history for the<br>> organisation, so I hope we can make it another great one.<br>><br>> You can see the 2007 report (and previous OSGeo Journal issues) here:<br>> [1] <a href="http://www.osgeo.org/ojs" target="_blank">http://www.osgeo.org/ojs</a><br>
