[AtlanticCanada] RE: Atlantic Canada local chapter listing at OSGeo website

[Jeff McKenna]

Further to my last post, here is a little explanation:

1) http://www.osgeo.org/ -> this is a site running on Drupal, a content 
management system.  Each member of our local chapter should take the 
time to register an account on this site, as this is often how member 
numbers for OSGeo are tracked (register at https://www.osgeo.org/user). 
    I have admin privileges to edit most of those pages.

2) http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Main_Page -> this is a wiki, meaning that 
anyone can register and create pages.  This is where all chapter pages 
exist (such as ours at 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Atlantic_Canada_Chapter).  I encourage 
everyone to create a wiki account 
(http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=Atlantic_Canada_Chapter) 
and add yourself to our chapter page as a member, and add in any of your 
ideas on our chapter wiki page.

Hopefully this makes some sense.  Let me know if you have any questions.
