<div dir="ltr">Hi OSGeo Live folks,<div>I know I said I'd retired, but this opportunity is too good to slip by. The stars are lining up to solve an illusively difficult cross-domain glossary management problem, and I feel that the OSGeoLive project has a relatively small but super important role to play.</div><div><br></div><div>So I propose the OSGeoLive commits to the following:</div><div>1. OSGeoLive docs will include the OSGeo glossary generated out of the OSGeo Lexicon project.</div><div>+1 Cameron<br></div><div><br></div><div>2. OSGeoLive will help our tech writers reach out to all the OSGeo project points of contact. (The tech writers are offering to do most of the leg work. It will be a case of providing introductions and sharing contact lists.)</div><div>+1 Cameron<br></div><div><br></div><div>3. OSGeoLive will help our tech writers reach out to OSGeo translators. (Again, our tech writers can do much of the leg work.)</div><div>+1 Cameron<br></div><div><br></div><div>The remaining details are in the thread below...</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 17 Aug 2020 at 07:11, Cameron Shorter <<a href="mailto:cameron.shorter@gmail.com">cameron.shorter@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi OSGeo folks,<div>A bunch of communities are coming together to address cross-domain management of glossaries in a pilot running August - December 2020.
