[Board] Board meeting (or work party) Thursday 14:00 UTC

[Jody Garnett]

You have provided the guidence about
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/MOU_OSGeo_All
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/MOU_OSGeo_All> before, but not provided a list
or updated the document to match, and nobody else has taken the time
(including myself).

Looks like the list is:

   - International Cartographic Association (ICA)
   - International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS)
   - Spatial Information Office of Korea Land & Housing Corporation (LH
   Corp)
   - Open Geospatial Consortium Inc. (OGC)
   - University Consortium for Geographic Information Science (UCGIS)
   - Association of Geographic Information Laboratories in Europe (AGILE)

So I chose a bad example with GSDI :(

With respect to maintenance, we can leave off some details, such as contact
person, if it is too difficult to maintain. I would rather have a page,
because I suspect many people like myself have *no idea* what these
different organizations do. But I want to try what can be done first,
before giving up :)
