<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>Jeff and Maria from Osgeo recently drew my attention to:</p>
<p>===<br>
</p>
<p>during the UN-GGIM Forum in New York, Jack Dangermond announced
the birth of WGIC, which is a Council of industries (<a
class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wgicouncil.org/">https://wgicouncil.org/</a>)
operating in the geospatial sector. At the moment there are no
FOSS4G members and the members are all giants of the geospatial
world. I wonder if it could be worth your presence there or you
believe that it is useless or unfeasible. My comment is that this
is something that has to be discussed, independently of the result
of the discussion (if being involved or not; if being involved as
a single company or as a network of companies)</p>
<p>===</p>
<p>whereas some QGIS-friendly companies could evaluate their
individual participation to it, it might also be feasible to
participate as QGIS (perhaps representing all companies involved).</p>
<p>Anyone interested?</p>
<p>All the best.<br>
</p>
