<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The OSGEO Oceania Board has approved the SIG guidelines, circulated on this list previously for public consultation. This means that OO is now ready to consider the SIG charters and finalise the formation
of (at least) the first 2 sigs that have been discussed.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I would like to encourage you to finalise the draft charters and any other documentation you would like to attach, and send it for approval to the board. It would be great to get these SIG operational.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">There is no particular timeline, but we are all keen to not lose momentum.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">It may be good to circulate these Charters on the oceania list too, for comments.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
