<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Cameron et al,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">This is looking very professional. Well
done to all concerned.</font>
<br>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Some comments:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- I don't particularly like the term
'engaging the suits'. I suspect that you'd wear a suit more often than
I do.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- Can we tone down the term 'Geospatial'?
'Spatial' seems to be the preferred term in Australia e.g
(OSDM, SSI, ASIBA, CRC-SI, Victorian Spatial Committee etc).</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- Good use of a map on page 39. I can
almost believe that Sydney is the 'hub' of the world! ;-)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- You're missing a popular Australian
landmark in your wider 'places to visit section: The '12 Apostles' on the
great Ocean Road.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- Looking at the bid, we may have a
large number of people who want to come. Do we have any contingency plans
if greater that 1000 people attend, considering that the main auditorium
seats 945?</font>

good to verify that you are happy with statements made for you.<br>
