<div> </div>
<div>thanks for signing the Enabling FAIR Data commitment statement (<a href="http://www.copdess.org/enabling-fair-data-project/commitment-to-enabling-fair-data-in-the-earth-space-and-environmental-sciences/signatories/" target="_blank">http://www.copdess.org/enabling-fair-data-project/commitment-to-enabling-fair-data-in-the-earth-space-and-environmental-sciences/signatories/</a>) !</div>
<div>This is an important step to align the stakeholders in the field of Open Science.</div>
<div>It would be great if this could be announced as foundation news on the OSGeo website and also the mailing lists (Open GeoScience Committee, GeoForAll, etc). For the OpengeoScience committee, I will draft an announcement ASAP.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>best,</div>
<div>Peter</div>
