It is probably good as it is right now, connected to news and events
with fairly low frequency. I would like it to be used by local chapters
to advertize their events. But it would probably be even better if we
could persuade LCs to publish their events through the existing news and
events queues of OSGeo. Thoughts?

Best regards,
