I like the idea for an Aust-NZ OSGeo chapr. logo. No opinion on if
the 2009 Confr. logo should be like that or more specific to SYD
landmarks. ISTR we had folks on the list from PNG and the Philippines
as well .. How far do we go?

FWIW I received the 44kb attachment intact.

Totally offtopic, but maybe it helps solve a bug:
I notice in that image the coastline gets very spikey, especially around
Darwin. I suspect this is a PostScript miter limit/setlinejoin problem;
patch describing how to fix that is here:
