Dear OSGeo -

Over the last several months, the OSGeo community provided significant 
input into the OGC. This input included issues, concerns, and strengths 
of the OGC processes and covered a range of topics ranging from better 
public engagement, transparency, documentation, knowledge management and 
more.

We would like to continue the dialogue to improve the OGC with the goal 
of enhancing the value of OGC contributions to the community and to our 
Members. As part of this process, there are going to be a series of net 
meetings.

The "Ideas for OGC" (Ideas4OGC) effort aims to collect feedback, ideas, 
critiques, and comments to help us develop and improve the OGC. After 3 
successful members meetings this week we will now run 3 open public 
meetings on 11^th July to hear the thoughts and ideas from both members 
and non-members.

If you would like to participate please register here 
https://portal.opengeospatial.org/public_ogc/register/130711ideas.php

*_Most importantly, if know people who should participate please forward 
this email to them!_*

Registration details can be found here 
http://external.opengeospatial.org/twiki_public/Ideas4OGC/WebHome along 
with our public wiki.

We are looking forward to your contribution!

Regards
