<p class="MsoNormal">I made a motion last month to move the

list to <a href="http://discourse.osgeo.org" target="_blank">discourse.osgeo.org</a>. The
motion did not pass, but it did not fail either. Instead
it did not get sufficient response :)<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those who did not respond how can
we help? The other topics (accepting new members) got
sufficient response so it is not a case of being too
busy...<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">My own hopes/goals for making this
motion are to reflect the casual / outreach nature of
the marketing committee.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">We have an outreach mandate that
involves being available to event organizers, foss4g
service providers, and so on .. so this should be a good
change?<u></u><u></u></p>

being an email list. We can be reached directly using
OSGeo user id, GitHub login, any OAuth service ...<br>
Signing up for an email list is viewed as a burden in
2024, lowering the barrier to communication can only
be a good thing.<u></u><u></u></li>
<li class="MsoNormal">Being
an email list. There is some procedure for committee
members to join a "group" and send/receive email from
<a href="mailto:marketting@discourse.osgeo.org" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(65,156,255)">marketting@discourse.osgeo</span>.org</a>.
This should preserve the existing workflow for anyone

<li class="MsoNormal">Moderation:
While there is some risk in public communication,
especially for something called "marketting" we will
need to try this out in public. There are of course
block and moderation controls in discourse. There is
also a members-only option to limit interaction to
those who have "joined the group" (established for
email notifications) - but I would prefer to try
being accessible to the public first.<u></u><u></u></li>
