[OSGeo-Discuss] Southeast US OSGEO Chapter

[Jeff McKenna]

This makes total sense Randy, thanks for pushing this.  This week I also 
heard from a group in Chile with the same thoughts, might as well start 
something locally and share.   You can do the mailing list at any time, 
just file a ticket here[1] under the "Systems Admin" component, and 
include the admin's e-mail and desired list name.

PS. it's never too early to start thinking of plans for FOSS4G-2017 
NorthAmerica !

Thanks,

-jeff
