[Fwd: Re: [intl-discus] Just a hello from 'spain']

[Arnulf Christl]

Hi,
shall we stick to the name prefix [intl-discus]? We could interpret our 
job as being olympic discus throwers spreading the word but normally I 
would expect it to be [intl-discuss] with two esses.

Arnulf.

Hi Marc,
I have seen you around on the Mapbender user map.
http://wms1.ccgis.de/mapbender2/frames/login.php?name=mb&password=mb&mb_user_myGui=mapbender&mb_myBBOX=-5.43,37.19,4.58,42.2

Currently we are still sorting out internal and international stuff so
we are not really aware yet of too many activities that happen at
national levels. If you feel that there is something going on that
should be addressed by the OSGeo feel free to discuss it here.

Best regards,
Arnulf.
