<p>Thanks Alex, John and Adam for your review. You have made some
good suggestions and I've accepted almost all them.</p>
<p>Dan from Position magazine also provided good feedback on Friday
which I've copied into this email thread. Dan, I believe we are
ready to hand over to you. If you make any changes, could you
please provide me with the final version which I'd like to add to
my blog.</p>
<p>Cheers, Cameron<br>

incorporated your comments. I'd be interested to hear what you
think about the revised introduction. <br>
<br>
I understand what you are saying about weaving more geospatial
into the story, but don't think I can do that easily because I
don't have some nice examples at my fingertips to draw upon. <br>
<br>
Feel free to talk me today to discuss. <br>
<br>
Cheers, Cameron <br>

<br>
<br>
Please see attached. I apologise for the .docx, I was dragged
kicking and screaming back into a Microsoft-intranet-legacy
hell when I began this role, an extremely painful transition
from a much more open and collaborative workflow, in which
version control nightmares were a thing of the past.
<br>
<br>
I've made some initial comments and suggestions on the
attached. Overall I feel it's a bit broad, if there's a way to
relate the exposition of open principles to geospatial
applications with illustrative examples, that would be ideal
and would improve things a lot.
<br>
<br>
I've suggested two whole sections that could be cut in my
view, however, a more elegant approach may be to cut a bit
more from all of the sections so that they can still be
represented.
<br>
<br>
Also, the list of open geospatial products and entities is
useful but disconnected from the rest of the article. I've
made one suggestion as to how this could be approached with
layout (essentially featuring this as a sidebar column along
the main piece), however there could also be a way to weave
these into the main piece.
<br>
<br>
See how you go, and thank you again for the work on this so
far.
<br>
<br>
Best,
<br>
Dan

<br>
I've drafted an article for Position Magazine which talks
about the <br>
benefits of Open Geospatial, leading to a plug for FOSS4G.<br>
<br>
I'd love it if a few of you would be able to give me a review.
In <br>
particular, there might be a few more projects we should
mention about <br>
Open Datasets. Maybe say something about AURIN?<br>

Daniel (editor),<br>

I realise I'm over your preferred word count. Is that
something you can <br>
work around, or will we need to reign the length in?<br>
<br>
Thanks, Cameron<br>
