Just a bit of concern – OpenGIS and many variations are trademarks of the OGC.

  Thanks Anulf, 
  I will pose the issue to the UN and ask for modification.

  Do you think that UNopenGIS initiative may be OK?

    Folks,
    please note (again) that "OpenGIS" is a registered trademark of the OGC
    [1]. We should find another term before it becomes habitual and the
    confusion between standards and software starts over.

    Thanks,
    Arnulf
