Dear list,
Great news!

I propose following quote - DRAFT:

Board press release OSGeo-BE is an official local chapter

Subject:
OSGeo-BE is an official local OSGeo chapter

News date:
June 23, 2015

Subject:
The local active OSGeo members from Belgium are proud to announce the birth of the Belgian local Chapter.

Belgium is, as a country divided in at least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo community members today are either active in the OSGeo.nl, the OSGeo.fr or in several OSGeo communities.

The Belgium chapter will actively work on the promotion of open source Geo solutions and the continuation of all the good work based on the existing software stacks.

Together with the Belgian eco-system of administrations, industry and schools, we want to build on a more open world.

on 29 October, we will organise a first FOSS4G-BE and announce the birth of the (legal) organisation to the Belgium public.
