Jodi, based on our MoU tracking wiki
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/MOU_OSGeo_All
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/MOU_OSGeo_All>
this MoU has not been signed yet - that would explain why it is not listed
on their website and it should not be listed on our website yet. Please use
the wiki page above for the list of active MoUs.

Also, at my meeting at GetInteractive I suggested to only list the partners
with one sentence description and a link to their website unless we have a
dedicated volunteer who would be willing to keep the text and contacts on
 our website up to date. Many organizations change their descriptions quite
often and the same is true about the officers and contacts (e.g. for most
of our active partners the presidents rotate on annual or bi-annual basis).
In the past we were not even able to review the MoUs annually as written in
the MoUs so we changed it to bi-annual renewals.

This is just my suggestion, feel free to keep the page with extended
descriptions, but please do not include the MoUs that have not been signed
yet and for which we do not have a signed hardcopy in Dropbox.

Thank you Helena
