[Board] OSGeo involvement in οfficial project

[Posta Maria]

In my opinion we could ask other organizations (like for instance OGC) which policy they have. I see that OGC acts also as partner in some projects ( see for instance here http://www.thegigasforum.eu/project/partners.html . It means that they have already thought about that topic, considering pros and cons (at least this is my supposition). Probably it is better if these pieces of information are directly requested by a Director instead of me. 
Many thanks.
Maria
