[OSGeo-Discuss] Local Chapters Mailing List

[Landon Blake]

I subscribed too.

I'm the "board rep" for the California Chapter. I'm really just filling
in for the rest of 2010 until we can find someone to do the job well. :]

Two of my biggest challenges with the California Chapter have been: 

(1) Dealing with a large geographic area.
(2) Getting people with a diverse set of interests involved enough to
accomplish anything more concrete than an annual meeting.

I'd love to hear how other chapters might be overcoming similar
obstacles.
