Hi Suchith, Cameron and all,<br>
<br>
I'm very happy to see this dialog.<br>
<br>
Now that I have been officially appointed (tasked), I want
to leverage, contribute and help move forward e-learning
material related to OGC standards.<br>
<br>
I'm wondering, is it worth to schedule a telecon about the
next steps?<br>

Thanks Chris for the offer of support from yourself and
others from the OGC. I think this is another great
opportunity for OSGeo and the OGC to work together.<br>
It is also very valuable and motivating for us OSGeo
contributors to know that the OGC can help deliver OSGeo
concerns to the right people.<br>

As an OGC Board member, I appreciate the subject change.
If the GeoForAll community wants any particular
involvement from the OGC on this or other matters, I am
more than happy to help facilitate the interaction with
appropriate OGC staff and membership.<br>
<br>
Also, coincidently, I happen to do a lot of work with
leading US government investors in LiDAR technology,
collection and processing - all the way up to the White
House Office of Science and Technology Policy. If their
attention is required, I am happy to facilitate.<br>

Thanks for all you guys are doing.<br>

I'm bringing this email thread back onto the public
ica-osgeo-labs list (CC OGC people) and changing title
(with permission of Suchith).<br>
Title was "RE: [Ica-osgeo-labs] The LAS format, the
ASPRS, and the ģLAZ cloneē by ESRI" and a private
conversation had started.<br>
<br>
Hi Suchith,<br>
I like the idea of bringing OGC standards into
education, and would be keen to see authoritative and
consistent descriptions of standards available. (We
started doing this a while ago on OSGeo Live [1], but
these descriptions are incomplete, out of date, and
the template needs improving).<br>
<br>
There was further discussion about describing
standards within the OGC "Ideas4OGC" initiative [2] ~
October 2013, leading to recognition of a need for
consistent descriptions of standards: including a one
pager description for architects, and an
implementation guide for developers.<br>
<br>
There is a lot of work in developing such
documentation for all standards, but if we create a
template for what is required, we can then spread the
work across multiple interested parties (as we have
done with OSGeo-Live documentation). I'd be happy to
help with creating such a template.<br>

Hi Cameron, All,<br>

I am not a standards expert but i am determined that
i am going to do my best to improve the education
aspects of Open Standards in Geo Eduation curriculum
worldwide. This is long term action and we need help
from all interested to join this.<br>
<br>
We have done this successfully in Open Source GIS
education in a very short time. For example, our
GeoAcademy colleagues have not only established a
very successful MOOC program ( i understand over
4000 students are enrolled for their March 2015
cohort, so the scale of expansion of this amazing)
but more importantly they made available the
curriculum (lecture materials, tutorials etc)
available to all educators to share and share alike
